S Coupe tire size.

I have used 205/55/16 a/s v rated tires on my R53's and R56. Should I use the same size on the R58?

I would imagine that the tire specs for the R58 Coupe will be exactly the same as for the R53 and R56. The only thing I could see as a problem would be the larger brakes on the JCW Coupe (which probably eliminates the use of a 16" rim and will only work with select 17" rims that have the proper clearence).

Does anyone know for sure if the Von Max 17 X 17.5 wheels will fit on the JCW Coupe? They are available at the Tire Rack. The offset is 40 MM and the backspacing is 5.86.

Regards,

Pat
