You have already wasted money on incorrect tyres, if you go van route tyres it will be "good after bad".Reedweaver wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2019 5:36 pm The price is absolutely ridiculous for the premium 185/80/15 tyres with a low load index.
Just by putting the work Sport or Classic in the title seems to give the OK to charge the earth. SP250 owners are getting fleeced just fill out the wheel arches!
I'm thinking of putting some commercial cargo van tyres on and to hell with the ride comfort!
185/80R15C
Load index 103/102
Speed rating R, 106mph
5x tyres fitted is £300...
The other issue with van tyres is that their wall ply is far higher than car tyres and this is what affects the handling + road manners. Additionally your car is extremely light compared to the weight of a van - that's why manufacturers make tyres for cars and make different ones for vans etc. As has been pointed out, you get what you pay for - I would urge you to go Blockley or Vredestein for your car.
