Yet another tire question
Hello all,
I've had a blowout and need to replace a tire. The problem is that
Bridgestone no longer makes the 205/60HR-14 (now on V rating and up) that I
have.
Two questions:
I understand that all four tires should be the same make/model/size/speed
rating because I have AWD and ABS. Can I get away with a different
model/same speed rating on the front vs. the rear? This is for the cost
savings over buying four.
While in fantasyland earlier, I calculated that a 225/40R-16 would have a
very similar diameter to the original 195/60R-14. What horrible things would
I have to do to my fenders to fit these tires on the car?
Thanks in advance,
Alan Page
