Hi,
this is for a 106 ralye s1. The factory tire was size 175/60 R14. Getting hard to find and quite expensive these days. I was thinking of switching to 175/65, which is offered in more variety. However, an independent mechanic has advised me against it; he claims that the higher profile (65 over 60) will adversely affect front suspension performance and will increase its wear rate.
What do you think? TIA,
Nikolas
