Tyre swop from 18" to 17"
Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2018 8:18 pm
Hello,
I've recently bought a 1.2 Tekna Pulsar and I'm finding the ride is much too harsh on the poor roads around where I live, the tyres are the standard fitment 18" low profile 40, which I believe is the main cause of the poor ride.
My question is -- I would like to fit 17" 205/60/17 tyres/wheels, or fit some 17" wheels from a different version of Pulsar so as to get the higher profile for comfort .
I would like to fit 17" 205/60/17 wheels, or fit some 17" wheels from a different version of Pulsar so as to get the higher profile for comfort , this I hope would still ensure the speedo reads correctly and I could swop the tyre monitoring sensors on the tyre valves.
Any suggestions will be greatly received, regards from Neale.
