NE1 run 225/40/18's all around before?

How did you like them? Did you have enough traction in the back? Did it look too small?

If I'm not mistaken, I have a set of Pirelli P-zero assymetricos on my car mounted on Breyton Softlines (18x8.5) in 225/40/18. Not sure about that 40 part, but it couldn't be much different. Anyway, I thought they would be kind of skinny, but it's not too bad, compared to the 255s my friend has on the back of his car, yes, there is a huge difference, but when matched up with a 235 or soemthing of that nature, it's really not too bad.

those tires have been through one BMW CCA Car Control Clinic, and they did well, my car could keep up with the rest of the pack through the different lessons, maybe it was cuz they are Pirellis, I don't know.

I'm not disappointed in the size, just disappointed that the Pirellis are so soft and wear so quickly (but you weren't asking about this, were you?)

oh yeah, don't ask me to check exactly what size tire I have, I couldn't tell you, I'm in LA and my car is in San Jose.

Hope this post helps at least a little.

Thanks for the info!

That's funny for the last 8 weeks I was in San Francisco and my car was in LA, LOL.

I run 225/40-18 Toyo Proxes FZ4's all around. I think they are too narrow for the 8.5" rims. I am looking to go wider when I replace them. It will be awhile though. Also there is no rim protection.
