my legacy gt estate is running on 215/45 x 17 91w xtra load tyres, do i need to replace with extra load tyres OR can i go for standard tyres rated at 87???
any thoughts??????
i'm thinking of changing the size to. to 215/40 x 17

 

hi folks,this is not a trick question, this is something the garage said,(that i might need extra load tyres as it is an estate car) they also sais IF i have an accident its the 1st thing my insurance would look at to not pay out!

 

i reckon your garage trying to get some tyres shifted off the shelves

 

im sure theres nothing written on insurance could be wrong though about whether you need standard or extra load tyres on an estate just if you have defective or bald ones which may cause an accident under braking i agree with EJ22 LAD and get some goodyear f1s or toyo r888s seem a popular choice.
