cheers for that mate
i thought the studs didnt look far out either, think il pop back down in that case, there currently on 195/65/15 and 195/60/15 is this too big atm?
what you reckon would be a good tyre size?

Ahhhh poo, thats gonna be another wad to pay out on rubber then. Do you think I'd be able to pick that size tyre up part worn? I just wouldnt be able to pick up 4 new tyres at the same time it would be be bout 120 at least
