marki Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hi all. I need to change my very old goodyear nct tyres. They are 185 /70s and i like the look of the size. I have had a quick search and found lots of different opinions. The prices ive had are crazy so far. If i change to some 195/65s how much diffrence would it make to rpm at say 60 or 70. Not to keen on 165s as i think they look a bit slim..( open flood gates ) Thanks Mark.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Smith Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Mark, Stick with 185/70/15 if you can get them, as they give a virtually identical rolling radius as the original 165/15s. Cheers Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Denis Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Creak of Flood gate opening...If you had a Model T Ford would you put fat tyres on it ? Oh yeah, some do and they're called Hot Rods! Each to their own! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
