Re: Another Tyre Question
Hi Guys,
I have a 2015 Touareg V6 that comes with wheels that are
275 45 20.
Now I purchased a second hand set off Gumtree that are 255 60 18
for taking offroad as the existing Pirelli Verde's are really weak and I've
already had two flats.
Here's my question: I cannot find another 18 on gumtree to use as a spare
so Im hoping I can keep one of the original wheels as a back up spare if
I were to get a flat. Now Ive put the calculations into a website and the difference is negligible or within 1% which according to many websites is acceptable for the rolling diameter.
Would it be ok to do this for a spare if I only drive back to base for example.
The reason I ask is Ive been invited up to Landcrusier Mountain Park with some friends and I would love to go but its a 2.5 hour drive back to Brisbane
If I get a flat and Im sure the space saver wont last.
What do you guys think ?
Cheers,
Lee
