Thoughts on these for MR

Post by Popey » Fri Jul 19, 2013 7:29 pm

Getting good reviews on other forums and think they will look the muts nuts on my black MR

Recommend tyre size: 235/35 and 265/30

(any fitment issues going on the M?)

Fronts will have a smaller diameter/circumference than standard (by about 2% smaller) - closer size would be 235/40r19 (1.7% bigger)

Rears will have a smaller diameter/circumference than standard (by about 3% smaller) - closer size would be 265/35r19 (1% bigger).

Using the smaller sizes will make your speedo read even more above your actual speed - the larger size will bring it closer to true speed.

Can't comment on the wheels as I've never bought/used replicas/copies.

Thanks for the tyre advice :).
