New rear tyres T/A look.

Post by MattH »

Just replaced the rear tyres and went for bigger to try to replicate the T/A look.
The original T/A had E60 front and G60 rear tyres so I found a comparsion site and the G60 comes close to a 235/60/15.
As I already have 215/65/15 all round, I kept 2 of those on the fronts and I went for a higher profile at the rear to get the T/A stance.

Thankfully they have fitted in the arch (just!) and do look better I think.
Just need to charge the flat battery so I can move it to take a decent photo.
