Need help with tire size! 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Eddie on  Tue Apr 29 13:00 CST 2003 [RELATED]


Hello Volvo friends! I have a 1991 740 with the factory size 185-65-R15 tires.
I would like to replace these with some 205-55-R15
This tire is about 1/2 inch smaller in diameter and about 1 inch wider.
How much will this throw off the speedometer at 60 mph (100km)?
Will I need a front end alignment?
Can anyone give me suggestions, advice or tips about such a change.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Eddie
