Default Re: Help please on tyre choice ???

Hi All , I think you should check the size of that rear tire , it should 255 not 225 as that will not fit the rim , As i have wrote before go for the next size up (275) on the rear as it fis the rim better . i just hope that was a typo' SteveB1.

"Hi Baz , i went for Dunlops in the end ,Grip is good & not much road noise , But i have the 275 on rear & standard on front . i think the 275's fill the rim better than the standard 255 's , If you look at your wheels & tyres at the moment (if your using the standard sizes ) you will see the front tyre fills the rim , but the rear tyre looks a little on the slim side. going up to the next size at the back , just gives a more balanced look . Using the 275's at the back will also help you from damaging the rims . If you are worried about the tyres rubbing i have not had any problems ."
