finally am gonna sort my porsche alloys out but have come up with a bit of a problem. Theyre 7" wide so ideally i want a 205x45x16 tyre on them, or a 215x40 would work too.
the issue ive got is that a b3 estate needs a 86 (530kg) load rated tyre, and all the tyres in these sizes are meant for cars like the fabia VRS and clio 182 so they only have a 83 load rating so they wont be legal to use on the passat. I can get a toyo t1R in the right size and load rating but am put off by reports saying they only last 9000 miles before theyre junk
what makes/models/sizes of tyre are people using on their 16" wheels?
