Title: Tyre sizes (for spare)
Post by: JohnM on 31 July 2009, 20:12:33
If running 225/55 16s,  is a 195/65 15 any good for a spare?

- is the (spare) wheel itself any good.


Anybody know what is normally provided as spare for a 225/55 16 mig?

As i see it, we run around on space savers & they're different by a long way. So i'd say you're ok :y H21 may be able to answer in the laws eyes ;)

All Omegas have the same 15" spare, 195 is about as big as you're gonna get in the wheel well, try your 225 and you'll see how tight it is in there.
They're intended purely as a spare, and they're some what better than some of the pram wheels provided by other manufacturers.

Very good - if that is standard it'll do me.
