General Stilo 1.6 195/65/15?????

[Bravo_Damsel]

Hi all

Been away for a while since my problems with the Bravo (unscrupulous garage owner doing a dodgy job while n the drink, ruining the head on my gaskets)

However upgraded to the Stilo 1.6 Dynamic 3dr (5dr Errrrrrghhh, sorry deckchair, I remember you had a 5dr lol) about a year ago, sorry for not informing all of you.

Had dreadful wear on my front tyres, namely the inside wall, problem as researched on here was the tracking being out and needs re-aligning. So car is currently at garage on the old tyres.

Bought some tyres of blackcirlcles, Nexen N2000 195/65 R15 V (91).
But I'm worried I may have bought the wrong size, can anyone confirm what size I'm supposed to have.

all depends on the size of you wheels? Are they alloys, trims? Some stilos have 17in wheels, so they'd be 195 65 17..correct me if I'm wrong anyone?

the 17's are 215 45 17, I think the Dynamic comes with 16" wheels so you would need 205 55 16. Does it not say on your old tyre??

.....and just to complete the list.

195/65/15 would be correct provided you're on 15" steel rims

Both my 1.6 Active Aircon & JTD Dynamic came on 15" steelies... I have some Nankang XR611's in 195/65 VR15 to go on the JTD once the Uni's on the 16" 16vtc's wear down to 3mm. By the way 195/65 15's only need to be H speed rated so with the higher V speed rating you will be OK

I have 195/65/15 on my 5 door (im sorry!!) and i think 5 door dynamics have them too, but 3 doors i thought had 16" alloys?

16" alloys are common on most of the higher spec'd motors (such as mine) even though strictly speaking they were never part of the dynamic spec.
