Where are the 235x50xr16 tyres available from or is there a different size we can use ?
Peter- you can search the threads/ posts and theres some good info/ recs on tyres.
I noted on the auction car fronts are 225 and rears 235
Hi Peter,
I've had the same problem. Seems R16 rims are not popular anymore. As a temporary measure I replaced my rear tyres with 225/50 R16 matching the front tyres, handling is o.k. I think the only option is to increase the rim size to R17 and the profile to 45. Unfortunately I've not found OZ Exclusive rims in that size with the same offset (ET32 if I remember correctly). Nor have I found rims that I think suite the car.
As "Flyinghorse" says there are other posts on the forum that show what others have done.
Post if you find any solution.
