cheers mate! not sure yet, still undecided, probably give the toyo t1-R a go though, not a bad price on them, still looking at the moment though, still not sure on 40 or 45's yet

I highly recommend the T1-R in the 40 profile. I'm running them and they are great. Look much better than the 45s aswell

If your planning to go lower deffo go for 40 profile tyres mate. They look so much nicer! But if you are keeping it at the current height it might look not look as good as they dont fill the arches as much if you get what i mean.

looking forward to seeing them on it

yeah i get what you mean shean, i dont really want to go lower than 40mm, cant be bothered to struggle getting through backroads and speed bumps
so im thinking more the 45 profile, as shaun said, so they fill the arch better, 40 profile might look funny then, we'll see if i lower it more or not first.
