205/45/17 tyres anyone?
Quote from S Illes on January 23, 2022, 1:30 pmDoes anyone know if possible to fit 205 instead of 195?
Looks like michelin is phasing out the ps4 and new ps5 starts at 205

really hope this is just a supply issue and they will produce 195 as well. (it's an unusual size anyway )

than I googled it and saw the PS5 is coming ... so I assumed it's going to be replaced with PS5

Quote from Joonte Lee on January 30, 2022, 11:06 pmI don't know what the laws are in the UK, but here in Australia a tyre can only be 15mm bigger than the stock diameter. Yes, a 205/45R17 fits, I can say that with confidence. Not sure about legal implications though

I've had 205/45/17 on my 2013 it's whole life, so definitely doable. Does it affect the ride quality? Can't say since I've never had anything else.
