Tire Height Questions V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N on  Tue Oct 29 10:54 CST 2002 [RELATED]

This site has a nice tire size calculator that can tell you the speedo
error.

The speedo error won't be much. A dealer can set it to the tire size, if you wish. But, I doubt speedos are more then 5% accurate anyway so you should be
OK.

Tire width is really the bigger issue since you can get some rubbing.
A 205/55 16 inch fits fine in a V70 so you could use that to determine if
your target size will fit.

The profile is simply the ratio of sidewall height to width.
