I know correct size is 215/40/16 but would it cause any probs running 215/45/16?
I have 4 of the 45 profile nearly new :undecided:
-
45 is the correct profile... 40 is for a 17" rim
-
My original sales brochure states 215/40/16?

215/40/16 was the correct size for a anni, you could switch to 205/45/16's however with no issues.
215/45/16's would affect the speedo.

How much would it affect the speedo?
-
Minimal. 1-3% at most probably. You wouldn't notice
-
As above not a lot, 205's would give you more clearance if it is lowered.

Must have been having a moment :rolleyes: tyres i have are 205/45/16 and not 215's :embarassed:
Will these be a better choice?

Thats correct the Anni's ran 215/40/16's however 205 or 195/45/16's are or can be cheaper and easier to find, all are ok to use.
