Detailed tire and wheel breakdown for the 2006 Bristol Fighter
Tire geometry â 285/40R18
The 285/40R18 fitted to the 2006 Bristol Fighter has a section width of 285mm and an aspect ratio of 40%, mounted on a 18-inch rim. That gives a sidewall height of 114.0mm (4.49") and an overall outside diameter of 685.2mm (26.98"). At highway speed this tire completes roughly 465 revolutions per kilometre, which is what your speedometer and odometer are calibrated against.
Plus-sizing window
If you want to upsize wheels on the 2006 Bristol Fighter while keeping the speedometer accurate, target a 295/34R19 (plus-one). For a softer ride or winter setup, a 275/46R17 (minus-one) keeps the overall diameter within Âą3% of stock, which is the industry tolerance for ABS and stability control to stay calibrated.
Wheel fitment specs
The 2006 Bristol Fighter uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 71.6mm hub bore. Safe rim width range for the OEM tire is 8.5J â 9.5J, and offsets in the ET45 â ET55 window will clear suspension and fender without rubbing on most setups.
Tire pressure guidance
Manufacturer-recommended cold tire pressure for the 2006 Bristol Fighter is printed on the driver-side door jamb sticker â always defer to that value, not to the maximum pressure printed on the tire sidewall. Check pressure monthly and before long trips; under-inflation by 20% can reduce tread life by 25%.
