Hi all,
My L reg Nissan Primera (tyre size 175x70x14) has been a great car from the day I owned it (4 years ago), but the tyres have 32K on them.
My dad's L reg Rover 214 (tyre size 175x65x14) has has been a piece of crxx from the day he owned it (6 years ago), and is about to go to its funeral. The tyres (Michelin) have about 10K on them.
As such, the Rover's tyres are available for about £25 ??? fitting.
If I plan to keep the Primera for say 2 more years, is this a wothwhile swap ?
According to my calculations, the diameter would decrease by 65/70, hence 70 mph on the speedometer would appear as 65mph.
Am I being stupidly cheap by even thinking of doing this ?
TIA.
