2008 Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDI (Manufactures Tyre Spec)
« on: 13 December 2012, 14:05 »
Not sure where to post, so i posted here lol, Excuse me if i posted in the wrong section... :lipsrsealed:

Anyway i have a  2008 skoda octavia 1.9 tdi (BXE Engine Code).

I am in need of 2 front tyres, But unsure which tyre spec to go for. With it being a 4 door hatchback, I would have thought it having tyres which can take load & high speed

The tyres spec i have ATM is: 205/60/R15 H. Does this sound about right?

Was googling and found this linke below:

http://skoda.workshop-manuals.com/octavia-mk2/index.php?id=130

Looking at the above link, I have the right tyres size, But it has H/V?. Whats does the "H & V" Mean??

Cheers

H-rated tyres would sound fine for the car.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
