Compatible tyre sizes

Spaniard14 · 2019-11-20 15:59:43

Hello there. Apologies if this is a duplicate thread but couldn’t find this information when I searched. I would like to know if you can pass the NCT with a different tire size. I mean, in some countries they accept a 3% variation. For example, a car with 205/60/r16 v91 can pass nct with a 205/55/r16 v91?

Once the tyres are the same on each axle, you're fine.

I think what you’re asking is if you can fit a different size to what’s specified by the manufacturer. If so the answer is yes.
