need some help on the tyres

[yn_hell]

hi guys, i am currently using s 17" 8jj frt 9jj rear rims with offset 35.
eventually it's time for me to change my tyres. but according to a lot of tyres shop,
they dun bring in 215/40/17 tyres, but by putting 215/45/17 it will hit the "inside" part, which i can't do full turn.
what should i do? anyone knows certain brands of tyres bring in that size?

i think dunlop has 215/45/17 coz that was the setup before i replaced them

215/45/17 profile will hit the inside, can't do full turn....

 

[graham_flag]

yeah i know, sorry i have mistaken in understanding your question and i thought you have adjustable or some sorts of suspension system to avoid the turning blockage..
have you considered 205/45/17 or 215/40/17? still a turn-limiting?

 

[yn_hell]

tot of goin 205/40, but in that case i might need to stretch the tyres cos it might not fit nicely to the width of my front which is 8jj

my mr2 used to use 215/45/17 tyres in front, it touches a little bit when turn full......so avoid turning full, u can do this by dumping clutch n the rear will go.....hahahahaha
