Hi all, got some ad08 17 45/225 tyres laying around, and need a pair on for winter! Will they fit on standard 7j wheels on standard offset?

Thanks

I'm running that same spec and tyre on a 8" rim. You'd be better off with a 215 or 205 I reckon fella.

Nice tyres to have laying around! There is a chap on here who has that size on his oem wheels so I can't see why not, as long as you're not silly low. Or you can swap them for my 215 Contisport 5 I have laying around [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

Haha, I would! They haven't got a great deal of tread left. I just need a tyre for winter! Then a new set for spring :)

Thanks for the advice!
