axbci Member 2 Member For: 16y 4m 30d Posted 20/07/09 03:06 PM Share Posted 20/07/09 03:06 PM Just bought a set of 20's (20x8.5's)off ebay. They come with Achilles ATR's 225x30x20 and are rated 85 on the front. Rears are Nankang NSII's, same spec. I'm not sure which are the one's making the noise, but sh!t, they sound like a plane is taking off. I'm looking around for a decent set of tyres to replace these, but it's much harder than I thought finding good 30 series rubber rated at or above 93W. The majority are rated at 90 or below. If you go up to 35 series rubber, you get no problems with ratings, but it screw's with your speedo and I believe it also won't work for the front wheels. I'll be doin some more ringing and reading tomorrow, but at this stage, might have to resell and go back to 19's simply for sanity's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axbci Member 2 Member For: 16y 4m 30d Posted 21/07/09 03:48 AM Share Posted 21/07/09 03:48 AM Apart from the Nankang, all are under 93w. Therefore, illegal. I rang my insurance company to confirm and they said, that if I were in an accident, they wouldn't cover me. Therefore, I'm going home tonight to take off the wheels and sell them on. Shame really... I love these wheels, but I've used Nankangs before and what can I say? A 180 in a roundabout steers me to go to 19's. If you're interested in buying these wheels, let me know and I'll post up.
