Jaiimez Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Hey so I need new front tyres on my Mk 1 Focus, it runs 195/60r15, but the currently speed rating on there are T, but I can get the same tyre I want, with a higher speed rating for less cost, does that matter, from what I gather it's only an issue if you downgrade the speed rating to below the minimum for your car.

Dal. Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 As long as the loading is the same or better (the number) and the speed rating is the same or better (the letter) you'll be fine. Might be an idea to look up what was standard for your car rather than "whats on" just to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsdriver Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Great tyre, got them on my mk3 focus only different size 205/55/16 91v They are very quiet and have improved my fuel mpg. They have lasted well too, MOT and service last week said 3.5mm left on the fronts, and 5.5mm on the rears. The car has done 15,000 miles since they were put on. So they are lasting well.
