Hi guys,
today I had to replace my tyres and as I am living in Mozambique, it was impossible to get the original sized 265/70 R 15 ones, only 265/75 R 15. So I fitted them on the same 15 inch rim, of course they are a bit higher and also wider now the chassis (Why the hell is that, shouldn´t be all 265s of the same width???) Anyway, the car handling is now a bit different, of course. The steering appears to be a bit more, well, shaky, or responsive, not to say unstable.
The question is: Does anybody have some experience with 265/75 sizes? Will it have maybe negative effects on the car?
Thanks a lot.
