I've posted regarding AWD tyre size limited to 215. So here's the question? What size tyre is fitted to the TW Magna AWD rally vehicles (ie, Dunkerton's and Taylor's)?

No idea (probably skinny little things) but did you know that when you replace a tyre on an AWD, you should get them all changed?

You would have to constantlly check each tyres wear pattern so as to avoid any mis-matched rolling diameters, especially if you drive enthusiastically.
Althoug I'm guessing this would only be a real problem with respect to differance in the front to rear rolling diameter (extra diff wear)? Athough the rear LSD might complain too.

Really? I never knew that... surely it wouldnt make that much difference having new tyres on one end and slightly used on the other... how much difference in rolling diameter is there?? a few mm's?? surely the drive train could handle that???
is there known cases of ppl putting on new tyres on one end and then breaking stuff as a result??

That's legal???:nuts: Reckon that's really going to sort out the steering when he goes troppo around corners. Anythins legal till you get caught:confused:

You've got one thread on legalities...just leave it at that.
