are these tyres okay ?

Post by sternal »

Having purchased some carat alloys a few of the tyres will need replacing

Is this load rating okay
205/70 R14 T (93)

On the moment the tyres are 95 t which equates to 690kg per corner

93 equates to 650kg per corner

So are 93's okay ?

Thanks in advance

I believe the VW manual suggests a load rating of at least 97 i.e. 730 kg per tyre, so on that basis neither tyre is suitable.

Buy some proper tyres mate.
If you value your life and family that is.
Tyres made in Europe for the European climate that meet ISO standards
Pirelli, Goodyear, Dunlop etc.
