What
are the key issues to consider when deciding whether to fit
175 or 185 tyres on an MGBGTV8?
Simon Pickford posted a note on the V8 Bulletin Board saying
"I
need to fit some new tyres shortly and had a look around at
what people were fitting at Silverstone. Currently have 185s
but am considering going back to 175s. Are there any strong
views on what is best?"

| There
are at least four sets of issues you will need to review
in assessing your tyre choice: a number of objective issues
on tyre size, aspect ratio and gearing, the subjective
issue of the car's appearance with a lower diameter
tyre and ride height, the available information on tyre
grip, handling and wear performance and the natural
concerns over the price and availability of the
tyres you might wish to choose. See a note on these issues.
