Dilema...

Hi, Im having a dilema between a new set of tryes for exsisting 19" or taking the pludge and upgrading to 20" with tyres (looking at some style 9) so couple of quick questions please:

1. what is the correct tyre size to fit without the clock being out and having to be recalibrated...?
2. What are 255/50/20 109V NEXEN ROADIAN HP tryes like generally for noise, wear, handling etc...?

Currently riding on 255/55/r19. Pirrelli scorpian zero.

Many thanks

255/50 R20

Nexans are good value for money everyday motoring. Not a high performance tyre.

I have the Nexen Roadians and although the "driving environment" here is a bit different from what you guys have, I'm quite happy with them.

I also read that most if not all users of Roadians on FFRRs are quite happy with their performance. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

275 45 20, just fitted a set of General AT, they are exactly the same circumference as OEM, I measured them - other makes may vary though! 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

Nexens are fine, bit more noisy than OEM Pirelli's etc. The side walls are pretty soft though compared to other makes. Road holding is fine. They are a good budget tyre nothing more nothing less, I would take them over other cheap tyres. Many MD fit them so can't be that bad 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17
