361. Re: TR 250 Tires Size- Will 195/75R15 work ?? (score: 1)

Robert--If you like these tires, keep them. Not enough difference in size as compared to the originals to make an error in speed or odo readings. (26.5 vs 26.4 tall, and .400 wider) Dick

Oliver--Stubborn fittings can be persuaded apart with the use of a propane, or an acetylene torch. Shielding sensitive areas is always wise. Power hacksaws are also good, room permitting. Dick Oliver
