I take it this is the 6n2?

If I remember correctly 40 profile will give a similar rolling radius to standard but will put your speedo out a little.

I would stick with 16's at 40 profile. 17's are a little large I think.

The offset should be fine :wink:

Yeah I think you would be looking at some 35 or even 30 profile tyres but you would be speding stupid money on tyres with profiles like that

Yeh you'd need 35s I think. I also think 17s are wayy to big for the 6N2.
