Good point.... I will check my brothers 150 diesel and see what his flap says as they came with 16" wheels from the factory and see if mine and his are the same..


Confirmed by player.777 that they are the same.

Running at 2.1 bar won't wear out the tyres. Its what I run mine at and they are wearing fine.
