need help please for tire dimention
hi everyone,
so I want to change my tire on my xjs 1987 v12, I want to keep the original wheel the 15 inch (XJS starfish alloy wheels). I want to have an agressive look on this wheels, and I have the stock suspention do you thinks its gone a fit if I put 255-60r15 and 235-60r15 on this wheel I read a lot and I don't fine any place on internet who talk about this size on that car thanks gut sorry for my english im a fench guy I tried to do my best https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/<...1144889399.jpg[/IMG] http://www.imagup.com/data/1144889449.html |
Firstly welcome. Your english is better than my French.
If you are keeping the stock rim then you should go for the 235/60-15 as the 255/60-15 have an approved rim width starting at 7.0", the 235 will also keep your speedo more accurate than the 255/60's. What happens when you fit wider tyres on a narrow rim is the tread bends so you get no benefit from going too wide. |
Wow ok Because on the bfgoodrigh website i need to have 7 inch and the wheel is 6.5
Maybe I can put 245-60r15 on my rear tire and 235-60-15 on front tire? And want an agressive look |
If all you want is the look, go for it ! Nothing horrible will happen but you might wear out the center of the tires faster and the car might have a bit of a mushy feel.
Truth is, the 6.5" wheel width was too narrow to get the best out of even the 235/60x15 size. Cheers DD |
