Tyre help

  1. Hello could I for these to the front of my bus . I'm lowered and running 175+50+15 on or the moment . I'm thinking of going
    185+60+14 on the front
    185+65+14 on the back
    I'm not running the air cooled engine so I'm not putting strain on the running gear
    Any help would be great
    Thanks Simon

    A lowered bus with small open tread M&S tyres seems a bit odd but they’ll fit on a standard 14” wheel and they have sufficient load rating, so yes, they’ll fit. The speedo will obviously be very inaccurate and the engine will rev much more than standard. The side wall is pretty small so the ride will be hard. And the little tyres will look a bit silly in the wheel arch but your current 175/50x15 are small too so I guess you're happy with the look.

  6. I run a Subaru engine and the wheel and tyres at the moment are
    175+50+15 on the front
    185+65+15 on the rear
    Yes I'm lowered by about 3inchs all round that's why the tyre size just looking for some winter tyres
