tire size....need opinon
i have stock lx rims/tires (185/70/14)
and im want to have 205/50/15........is it ok for me to drive on it?...how accurate will it be?
calculation.
STOCK
185mm x .70 = 129.5mm (sidewall)
129.5mm x 2 = 259mm ( 2 sidewalls)
((((NOTE= 25mm = 1"))))
259mm / 25mm = 10.36" (2 sidewalls)
10.36" + 14"(rim) = 24.36" (rim/tire diameter)
NEW
205mm x .50 = 102.5mm (sidewall)
102.5mm x 2 = 205mm ( 2 sidewalls)
((((NOTE= 25mm = 1"))))
205mm / 25mm = 8.2" (2 sidewalls)
8.2" + 15"(rim) = 23.2" (rim/tire diameter)
STOCK= 24.36" NEW= 23.2" 1.16" difference
23.2" / 24.36" x 100 = 95.24%
100% - 95.24%= 4.76% difference
So there are my calcution (yes i was bored)....that do u guys think?
ya or nah or it will be fine
