tyre sizes?

[Shortie]

I've got a hold of a set of 17" audi tt competition alloys that i'm going to fit to my fr tdi, what size and profile of tyre should i use? the alloys have an offset of 32, so i don't know if i should use the standard ibiza 17" fitment of 205/40/17 or change up a size? any ideas?

Is ET32 ok on an Ibiza or do they stick out past the arch on the front?

E32 is a perfect fit.

205/40/17 and have you looked at Yokohama Parada Spec 2's? Ive heard they are really good.

Toyo T1R's or Proxes 4's and Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's are all superb and good for driving in all conditions! 205 40 17's will fit perfectly!

215/40/17's fit on mine, parada 2 tyres.

i lost 3 ave mpg from 46 to about 43, whether this was changing tyre width (prev 195) or going from 15" to 17" im not sure.

but my car looks ok without any lowering so far. not sure if it CAN be lowered with 215 tyres

I've ran goodyear f1's before but found them to be quite poor in the winter weather and it's coming up to that time of year again, although to be fair they were excellent in the dry summer weather
