« on: 05 August 2012, 01:32:50 pm »
just found my driver,s side front and rear tyres have been slashed by some mindless bastard. I ,ve got two more to replace them but i need to know if they,re compatable the ones that have been slashed are deestone 7.50 16 112L 8P.R. extra traction ,and the ones to replace them are firestone 205 r16 reinforced 104S. want to know if ican have a pair on the front and a pair on the back if so which is the best way round.

they are different sizes

205's  have a simillar rolling diameter as a 600, so cant be run with 750's

No.

Not only are they quite significantly different sizes, the 205s are radials and the 7.50s are crossplies - mixing them is a really bad idea. Fitted in the wrong manner, a mix of crossplies and radials is illegal; but even done the "right" way with radials on the driving axle (for a Series truck the rear), it makes for horrible/dangerous handling.

Two weeks ago every car on my mums road had there tyres slashed. Ones on the road and on drives. They did all four tyres on all the cars. Thankfully my mum always put her car in the garage at night.

I'd be sleeping in it. You'll only do time if they find the body.

Bad news on both.

Seriously considering wiring mine up to the mains. Only thing stooping me is when the poor dog **** his leg in the wheels...
