215/40 17" which is smaller than the factory 205/50/16 so better for acceleration.

there is a website tyre size convertor to rolling daimeter. Google "tire size convertor" and go to the tires 1010 website

You can load different wheel sizes there and compare.

Cheers

225/45/16 and 250/50/16 are virtually the same rolling radius, so there is no problem with switching between them on standard rims ;\) . They will not affect the reading of the speedo.

I run the 225s now, having changed from 205s. The difference isn't massive (if anything), but they do protect the rims more .

I run Toyo T1Rs on mine, which seem to be very good (better than the PZeros that I ran previously ;\) ).
