They will be a couple of inches more in diameter which means about an inch closer to bodywork and the car will be an inch higher.

Not sure what you are running now but thats compared to my standard estate size of 205/55x16.

Check this site out - I've entered the tyre sizes and there is quite a difference - the speedo will be 12% out.... :wink:
