tires swapping 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be jonnyb on  Wed Nov 29 13:36 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I have a 1990 760gle that uses 185/65/15 tires. I also obtained rims from 1986 740 with snows on them 185/70/14. Would there be any problem using these snows and rims on the 760.

Steel wheels will probably be ok, but take a good look at your front calipers and rotors for clearance.

Many 90's had larger brakes than earlier models.

Jonny,

Should work with no problems, perhaps a slight speedo error, but nothing major.
