correct tyre size for ae111

Postby aetriple1 » Sun Jun 17, 2007 6:58 pm

just a quick question, what tyre sizes are on standard BZ-G/BZ-R models. the ones with those shinny factory 15" alloys.

195/50/15 or are they
195/55/15

i have brought some second hand 15" 'WORK' wheels and they have 195/50/15 but they look so small.

If i get new tyres and and get 205/50/15 would that work out to be correct size for ae111?

For memory there are 2 different sizes in the AE111 depending on which model you have, I had a BZ-V so it was equipped with 195/55/15, Some of the others in the range were different, There should be a sticker on the inside of the drivers door when you open it with the correct sizing for your car on it, then a tyre retailer should be able to tell you what profile to go to if your run 205's (in my case it was 205/50/15)

There is only a about a 3% difference in size on those tyres, so either is fine.
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
