Front Tyre Size

About to order some Toyo Rosso's for the front. Quick question, they don't appear to do 205 for width but 215 instead - will this be a big issue on the Vee? Is a Mk 2 and the Michelins it came with and standard should be 205. I have Toyo's on the back hence want to keep same tyres. If i do get 215 is it going to mess with the handling etc?
Or can i get 205 Toyo's?

Thanks for any info.
 
Just to add, by knowing the % variance in circumference you can calculate the variance is speed - which I would say is quite an important thing to know in this day and age :badgrin:

BTW Tim that is the link I use, good job I checked before posting :-)

Thinking back I think I actually had 215/40 front and 255/40 rear.
I did see lots running the 215/35 front. KTec offered them with their compomotive wheelsets a while ago.
 
Thanks, i've got 245/40 on the rear. Think i'll just go with the 215's on the front - am just worried about it affecting the handling adversely as the Vee is sensitive to these kinds of things!
