Sandy Wellington, size 10 apparently
Not sure I can really go with a tyre manufacturer that sounds like a really bad **** star name.
OK, look, I know that this thread drift is kinda my fault, but before it gets completely out of hand, which tyres am I supposed to be getting and where am I supposed to be getting them from? Part of the problem seems to be 19in wheels, as many stockists are showing just 18 and 20s
yep – I just did this myself. 0.7% speed difference (which is minimal), and you get a tire that's wider (better), taller (better for bumps and wheel well fitting), and actually overlaps the wheel rim instead of pulling "in" from it (better for protecting your wheels, and I think looks better too)The other question I have is whether one can fit 255 fronts and 295 rears if this would give increased protection from kerbing the rims - no explanation needed!

Went on Pirellis uk web site and based on the QP they do not have any tires suitable. What the h..l is going on
...but everyone says don't get the Pirellis anyway!
I'm thinking of Goodyear Eagle F1 next time
The most useful results for web searching I got were:
Camskill
Cartyres.com
Tyreleader.co.uk
