ive heard that lower profile can result in quicker acceleration, think it changes the final drive ratio or something? think it would only be noticed on paper though not something you could feel on the road. |

Lol the dutch renault manual says the 16v stands on 195/50/15 by standard. Both of my 16v's were on 50 by standard. |
