    I was just worried that the minimum size of 245 would be stretched

    It will be and so will a 275 on a 10.5, if you dont want stretch buy 8.5 and 9.5 :)

    These are 245/35 on a 19" x 9.5J wheel (my Zed), don't think it is overly stretched

    On the rear I have 275/35 on a 19" x 10.5J wheel, also nothing too stretchy

    Zed is lowered on Tein S-Tech springs on OEM shocks

  2. I had this issue before, super easy fix.

     

    Go to Halfords or local motor factor, purchase an Air Conditioning Cleaner Gas Bomb, start car, set fans to recirculate, put passenger seat all the way back, activate bomb and place in passenger footwell, exit vehicle, wait...wait.....have a cuppa....wait some more, after about 30 mins, shut off car and open doors to air out gas (make sure no new lifeforms enter vehicle while doors are open)

  3. Literally just this second turned off the TV from watching the news and the protests in Belgium over the 5000 jobs lost in the UK alone in the last year due to cheap poor quality metals being brought into Europe from China. I'd perhaps delete this thread...

     

    This: ^^^^^ :lol:

     

    You guys know that most of the parts in your.cars are made in China right?

    Everybody....throw away your iPhones NOW :lol:

  4. CarPlay only works with the standard Apple Lightning cable plugged into the USB port.

    AppRadio uses an AV adapter to connect to HU via HDMI. I have both because the AV adapter uses the feed from the lightning cable also.

    Meaning when I want to use AppRadio, I simply plug the Lightning cable into the AV Adaptor.

     

    AFAIK CarPlay is only possible via hardwiring, until there is a wireless solution

  5. Just get a HU with where the USB is extended off the unit itself, then you can and an extension if needed, my USB is in the cubby between the seats.

    I run a Pioneer SPH-DA120, and have routed the cables so I can have CarPlay or AppRadio ;)

     

    But as SuperStu has mentioned, plan ahead with what else you might want from your audio.

     

    Personally, I went and changed everything, not one piece of OEM audio is left in the Zed

  6. I suppose you could hook up your iPhone via the AppRadio mode and then just mirror your screen, which is the alternate option for the HU if you do not have an iPhone.

    I have both options wired into the cubby between the seats, because it's nice to have options :D
