Bigger Tyres?

(1/1)

SMason0877:
Im going to be putting Colway AT tyres onto my zook pretty soon.  They currently are 195 R15...Does anyone know if it can take 215/15s??  I realise that this will put the speedo out about 3% but i wondered if you peeps in the know had any input.

Hi

I calculate that the difference in diameter would make nearer 5 percent speedo error. If Colway offer a 215/75x15, it would get the diameter back to almost the same as the full profile 195. I estimate that this size would only increase tyre diameter by 10mm. Then the only real clearance issues will relate to the extra 10mm on each side of the tyre.

I have 215/15 muds on mine and never heard them rub.
As for the speedo it now reads correct!! :?
