I'm mathematically retarded, so I thought I'd put it to you, the panel.I like the 19" Typhoon rims (the twisty ones, dunno what model it is. maybe BF?) and would love to throw them on the TT as a little cosmetic upgrade. My issue is that I don't know if they'll meet the load requirements. Can anyone give me the lowdown, or point me in the right direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check with your local tyre place as to what tyres you can buy that will be load rated for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're out of the question, I'll be leaving the stockies. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even people from tyre shops who should know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
