Baggy needs new tires! Size question


Dirty Rockstar

Recommended Posts

Hey gang. Baggy needs new tires yesterday, and at work, we have a great buy on some 205/60/16 sport tires. So great, I want to get a set fast. What would be some foreseeable setbacks by going from 225/60/16s? I compared a 225 to the 205 and the only thing I can see is the sidewall seems a bit shorter on the 205s for some reason, but it could be an illusion. Thanks a lot all!

Will look too small, and your speedometer will be off.

 

IIRC, you can probably get the Viva 2's for cheap (assuming that you still work at Wally World, correct?). While I didn't care for them too much (soft sidewall, ok traction in snow, certainly not a handling tire), the wear rate on them was awesome, and the price was good.

 

Otherwise, check your local craigslist.
