The tyre size on my CM is 205/60/16, does anyone know if a 215/60/16 tyre would fit on the alloy and not affect the OEM set up:scratch:?
Thanks

Would think it would be fine ;)

If you’re just putting 1 on then no it probably won’t be fine as a 215 has a slightly larger circumference 36mm more.
As you have 4wd then you’d have to place all 4 tyres

Thanks for the thoughts...
Was thinking of putting more ALL TERRAIN style tyres on...looks like I would need to replace all four, but would I get away with replacing just the front two???

No, most non full-time 4WD systems detect slip to switch power, its highly likely that he smaller diameter tyres will be detected as slip i.e. turning more.
Might not be an issue but I wouldn’t risk it, plus you could be putting strain go the diffs

Cheers Vidal, interesting and worthwhile point noted:thumbs up:...It looks like you get Bridgestone Duelers in 205 60 16s...they even came on some CMs as OEM tyres, but alas not mine:ragin:
