Brian Deacon Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Thinking of changing all five tyres. Currently 195 45 R15 with two Toyo Proxes and two Avons. Going to get all Toyo, but also thinking of going 195 55 R15. Reason being mainly touring, extra ground clearance, and will also make speedo more accurate! 195 55 R15 will be very close in rolling distance to 195 70 13 , which were probably on the car when built (1998). Rears will fit no problem, but fronts look like they will be very tight in the cycle wings. Anybody using this size, or are there different length wing stays?

Brian Deacon Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 Just found a Pistonheads forum comment from somebody with a 99 S3 running 195 55 15 and they fit the cycle wings. Are all wing stays the same has to be the question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted April 21, 2016 Member Share Posted April 21, 2016 People refer to "racing stays" as being a different size, but I have no idea how many types there are in all.Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
