My 2000 Elite has 235x45x17 fitted. However,on searching online for tyres, a couple of sites after typing in my cars details,say that it should have 195x65x15 or 205x65x15 tyres fitted. I'm sure the wheels are the correct wheels for my car so why the discrepancy? Can i just ask what people have on their cars? ta muchly

Your tyres ARE the correct size. You have a later model car and the sites you've found have given the sizes that have been used for the older/less powerfull cars.

I found similar when I was trying to determin the speed rating of the tyres that should be fitted to my crappy Astra.
