I'm thinking of putting on 45's on mine the next time as my teeth have been loosened enough due to the roads being fe@kin shi!te.
I drove the hill road from Straiton to Dalmellington, then down to New Galloway on Sunday ..........Well I say the 'road' in its lowest form.
What a disgrace, All that money in road tax and only 20% spent on the roads. It shows.
Sorry to Rant off on a tangent.......They should clear on standard suspension, you may chaff the back if you have three heavies in the back.

Al , you would have had 225/45/17 tyres as standard m8 . Putting 45's on a classic will knock the speedo raiting out as the rolling radius will difer from standard .

Know where your coming from Klunker the Newton Stewart to Girvan road is a disgrace too just now,full of pot holes which the council have tried to patch with cold tar & the result is that the tar end up all over your car & out of the hole!!!
Getting back to this topic i have 215/45/17 on my scoob.

The ONLY profile on a 17" rim for a classic should be 205/45/17 or 215/40/17 NOT 215/45/17 as this size is for the newage wrx's and not classic's.
