I will be ordering some rota grid drifts this afternoon, just wondering what the ideal size is, i was thinking 17s but not sure on tyre size, any help?


18's :) however i would say depends if you have rear passengers alot ?

Occasionally i do but he only weighs like 11 stone lol

it all counts, depending on offsets etc that your going for i would say getting the arches slightly rolled will allow for a better fitment.

mine with 18's rolled arches and lowered, where its driveable, as its set up for fast road and track, but passed the point of rear passengers. so it depends on what heights etc.

its not just the size though you need to look at what offset the wheel is as this is what causes the issues.

I have gone for black 18 drifts

Lowered on 18's with wheel spacers I found lower profile tyres cleared my arces with rear passengers but I struggled with potholes and the front's destroying the walls of the tyres so went larger profile now they rub :(

Haha i made a last minute decision and backed out... i have the mot in a month or so and i would rather see what that says before i spend 800 odd quid...

Got mine on 18's just the other month in hyper black and really like them, I went with the wide 9.5's and put a bit of tyre stretch on as I couldn't resist the wide concave spoke look although they do stick out the arches ever so slightly but still need to adjust the camber to neg 1 or 2 deg as it's 0 now and going to tinker with the ride height a bit as it's too high as it stands now, needs to drop a good 20mm without getting too low... I had the rear arches rolled for £80 to compensate too. The car still handles great on the road :)
