Winter Tyres 2

Due to having ridiculous 22" rims, struggling for a decent winter tyre for the beast, which performs well electronically, but silly tyres negate any benifit. Have been offered some 19" RRS rims with Wintrac Xtreme tyres. Will these fit? Good idea? bad idea? No body told me there would be days like these

Sorry just noticed the RRS bit!

They will fit but the offset is slightly different so you may need a spacer but with 255 width they may fit direct.

Cheers

Rory...Out of interest what size of tyres do you have on your SC...RRS recommends 255/50/R19's although you can also use 255/55/R19's but these do make less accurate speedo readings

255/55 19 which I believe us the recommended size for a FFRR.

Also note to Sportex - not all 19's fit over Brembos so be careful.

Cheers
