Title: Tyre size Post by: Harley on May 26, 2009, 01:19:09 PM I'm unsure as to which tyre to use 185/80 Kumho white wall, 185/80 Sumitomo white wall, 175/80 GT black wall.
I'm thinking the 175/80 profile may look a bit small in a ute wheel arch. Whats your opinion Title: Re: Tyre size Post by: mcl1959 on May 26, 2009, 08:01:09 PM There has been lots of discussion on this and common consensus says that 185's are best
Ken Title: Re: Tyre size Post by: RET on May 27, 2009, 12:05:20 PM 175/80 reduces the rolling circumference of the tyre, which means revving harder to achieve the same speed and an over-reporting speedo.
185/80 is a reasonable approximation of the original 6.40 crossply's r/c. cheers RET |
