thermalpaste 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2008 I need new tires. Presently, im using 175/70 R13s, but they are a bit inadequate. Has anybody tried 185 / 65 R 13 on an esteem? I have seen esteems with 185/60 R13s, but the circumference of this size is substantially lower than the 175/70s. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdityaM 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2008 The standard factory fitted tyres for the Esteem are 155/80 R 13 (Steel Wheel) 175/70 R 13 (Alloy Wheel) That would mean that the 185/65 are fairly within 5~8 mm in circumference. I don't think you should head for anything more severe. AdityaM2008-05-04 10:38:58 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
