    I'm running 215 45 17 on front and 225 45 17 on back

    C70 IIRC are 225/45/17's as standard - if you open fuel flap or have a look in handbook for tyre sizes

    Recently discovered that a number of internet tyre sites like Etyres and KwikFit have a system where you put in the reg and - in theory - it shows what the car should have fitted. It has worked with all the cars I have put in so far, although I am confident that at least one person on here will prove me wrong. And I should add that I would not be in the least suprised - since there are so many possible permutations and special orders.

    Also to be seen in a gold Honda CR-V these days...

    Yep, 225/45/17 were on my original C70 alloys - they were standard on them alloys
