they will be fine with some stretch, just need to lose the square sitting tyres mate

205/40/17 - think that will be best.

seen as there for winter i dont want stretch really as i'd prefere that 10mm of grip per corner

but i'm gonna get nankangs, on ebay 4 tires for Â£155 delivered

mine 'failed' the other week as i forgot to wack my legal plates back on, luckily the guy is a mate and passed with the recommendation i use my legal plates that i keep in the boot!
they never said anything about how low it was, surely they'd just use common sense and put some wood down for the ramps

I used to be scared to take my 9n TDI to any MOT place for the same reason. Always ended up going to someone who knew someone I know lol
