tyres

Post by stuart »

Hi all, I have a set of aluminium latus wheels that I want to fit on our 89 MG Metro, but the correct size tyres 185 55 13 are almost impossible to buy, I have seen a set for £90+ per tyre, is there an alternative tyre size I can us that is more readily available, and of course legal to use. Thanks. Stuart

The 185/55/13 is the metro GTi size, you can fit 185/60/13 which, depending on the make
just clears the rear radius arm on the Rover Metro, I dont know if that size will clear the
A series Metro setup.

Shouldn't be a problem, but you're more likely to find 175/50/30.
