Just to let you guys know :

The final choice was 235/40/18 R888. These tires are actually about 240-245mm wich will definately require wider fenders. My 235/35/19 GY asymmetric street tires only have about 225mm (245 on the rims lip) and they still rub on wide bumps + corners !

Did a double take when reading this post, figured I had somehow landed on a USA site with all the talk of "Rims" "tIres" and "Fenders"  :happy2:
