95/45 16 or 205/40/16 tyres for my oz titans

Post by poloboyben »

Which tyres should i go for? What are the disadvantages of having a lower profile (40 rather than 45)? and having a 205 instead of 95?

Also been quoted £35 to have my camber adjusted and tracking done at local garage. Is this a reasonable quote or too expensive or what?

40's are thinner than 45's. the thinner the tyre the more bumy the ride.to be honest i dont really notice the difference between the two in firmness.
people often go for 40's to get good arc clearence. you should be ok with 45's.
