G'day Guys.
I tried a massive search on this one, but didn't really come across a clear and definitive answer.
Basically - Last week I picked up a set of VE SSV Wheels with 245/40/19 tyres.
I machined the centre bores out today to suit pre-VE hubs (in this case mine is a VY SS Ute) and found that the wheels fit perfectly on the rear with SSSL springs and 245/40/19 tyres.
The front however is a different story. The front is lowered on SL King Springs and the 245/40/19 are hard up against the strut towers.
Just wondering what size tyres would be the best to use? 235/40/19 or should I be moving to a 35 series profile?
The spec of the tyres on the VY SS wheels, that came with the car, are 235/45/17. Am I right in thinking that moving to a slightly narrower tyre, the setup will clear the strut assembly?
Cheers for any help guys and sorry for the bombarding with tyres sizes.
