32front 34rear but you should try them up / down from that to see how it feels. Mind you, the rear tyres should be wider just to keep the balance right

thanks for that.
thats the pressures i am running but i sometimes feel its a bit slippy in the wet.
mabey its just the kind of tyres that im running on.

Bit high on the fronts IMO. I run 29/33 on my 17s the same as stock and they feel really good. Less wasn't good, haven't tried more yet... on F1s btw

I have indeed recovered and the tent has even dried out and now packed away I'm still messing with the vids I took but that's fun too.

Are you running 205's all round? Cause if you are then that accounts for the slippy feeling. 225's on the back would be a better choice and the car will feel much more planted.
