I've got some 17" rims with 205/40/ZR17 tyres

I want 18" rims soooo....

without changing the diametre *Spellin

Would I be able to go for 18" wheels with the profile made an inch smaller, without affecting the diametre?

If you get what I mean

Like kerzo mentioned anton, "Show use only"

Like I said above Chris, they would be for show use only, so it would be a wise investment

I've just worked out the profile of 215/35ZR18 and it's 5.9 cm I think, correct me if I'm wrong

My Dad has 265/32/18's on the rear of his porsche, but cos they're so wide the profile isn't as small as you'd need on your car.

@ Christopher, haven't had anyone say that to me for time

Don't matter, the bigger the better, that's what I always say

I have to pay about £120
