Hi should be 255/55/18 all round , make sure they have a star rating on the tyre ! are they runflats or normal ?
do you have the steel pressure sensors on your original wheels as you will need a set for the new wheels about £70 each if you go with runflats . Next size up is 19" 255/50/19 all round see my add .

Thanks.  The wheels are 18" 8" or 8.5",  45 offset with 255/55/R18 tyres, OEM TPMS and either bolts supplied or OEM bolts.  The price with tyres ranges from £807 to £837 dependant on wheel.  If its runflats the price is starts at just over £1100 to £1136.

I didnt bother last year as itr was really mild and had no issues in the little snow we had, even towing, but my wife moved the horses to a yard that has no chance of seeing a gritter is much higher up than we are.

What add?
