On steels, Cassy runs 185/65/R15H, but now I've got a set of alloys, they're similar to the activa ones, Jenny has the same fitted.
To my knowledge they still take 205/60/R15's, and that's what's currently fitted, but what speed rating is needed?
Juliet uses V/W, but then she's an Activa.

Hi Xac, all the lower spec Xantias should be run on H rated tyres, with a minimum load factor of 88 (?). The codes should be seen as a reflection on the handling of the car, not its potential top speed.
I seem to remember all alloy wheels being fitted with 205/60R15 tyres, as they are wider than the steels and a 185/65R15 tyre is on its limits on a wider rim.
I'm in the workshop tomorrow, tyre changing, so I'll confirm this is correct.

My VSX has its original alloys which use 185/65/15 88H tyres.handyman wrote:I seem to remember all alloy wheels being fitted with 205/60R15 tyres, as they are wider than the steels and a 185/65R15 tyre is on its limits on a wider rim.
