getin me lift done toms

me lift is getting done toms new set of 4 pedders springs to lift it 40mm and that then opens my avenue for 16" rims with some fatter and larger tyres but have to wait for the tread on the old ones to ware down first.

Great - a spring lift alone will not allow a larger wheel and/or tyre. The tyre/wheel size is determined by the spring perch and, unless you have swapped to coil-overs, that has not changed.
