Correct. These wheels can all be fitted to car. Just carrying the spare in the wheel well. ______________________________

Sorry Bud I was going on the original, unedited info, which I believe was 185/55/18 1% size difference isn't an issue and the width difference shouldn't cause issues, but have a few slow full lock turns just to check, possibly in low mode, that should show up any issues... best to find out at walking pace than driving down the road I'm not too sure how critical the tyre size is on the ffrr... on my classic going to 265 from 205 has caused issues on full lock , so some 30mm spacers have been fitted, and now the wheels need arch flares Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer...

Thanks again for the reply and the info. Sorry miggit, it did originally say 185 in there.... I think I might bring one of the 285 tyres with me tomorrow and stick it on the wheels I'm going to see then fit it to the front and do a few turn in the yard to be sure things are ok. Thanks again guys... |

Well the guy i met on Saturday phone me this morning and apparently the wheels I want to look at were already sold and collected but the idiot I spoke to on Friday didn't know this, so the search continues.

they are the standard 2005 & 2006 18"wheels fitted to the TD6 so should have 255/60/18 tyres fitted and will fit into wheelwell in the boot no problem |

Cheers for that, HGv driver, but actually I think they're off the RR sport, but quite similar to the FFRR type you're talking about.
