tyre question

webmonkeyuk · 22 Apr 2007 at 10:35

My car currently runs on 205/55/R16 and i was wondering would 205/60/R16 fit on the alloy rims?

they should, as it will just be a taller tyre.

It will also effect your speedo reading too, why do you want to put 60s on instead of 55s?

going from 55% to 60% wont make a great difference to the speedo but i have to wonder why change to a cosmetically and probably worse handling profile?

because i bought 4 of them for my primera just before xmas as they were very cheap and mine would have needed changing soon, but ive recently decided to change to an x-type which is running 55/R16's and i just thought rather than selling them off could i use them on the jag when the tyres need changing
