david1972 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hi folks, I'm after some advice on the load and speed rating for 17" winter tyres to fit my blob eye. My door shut label doesn't tell me anything.... Cheers Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr B Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 load 87 speed V if proper winter tyres, as in snow & ice, you best on dedicated 16" rim & 205 width. if more cold wet weather rubber formula winter tyre then 17" fine. Dedicated snow winter tyres generally have lower speed ratings, if using lower speed ratings best contact insurers & get written approval as they can be funny on things like this at claim time .

So the same requirement as summers... Thanks@MrB Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
