My Panel 2LT came with 17"ers, I upped the tire size from anemic 215/50/17 to a beefier 225/50/17, rides better, handles better & looks better..

Tires can't be much over 26" or will hit the front strut plates, fyi..

PS: my speed-o is more accurate now as well..

Thanks everyone for being a helpful community! As I mentioned, I will be picking up these XXR wheels in 18"ers, so I think I'll be going with 225/45 and the brand will probably wind up being whatever deal I get --within reason. I write for a fww publications in my industry, so sometimes stuff is comped to me but I try not to take thinfs foe free. Usually Ill give the sponsor graphics services to say thanks. I'm working on Toyo tires next for my Panel, since their HQ is local in So Cal.

Got leather interior, grill , stereo with bacup monitor (really needed on the Panel), etc. And the project will be published, so I let you know.
