[QUOTE="naskeet, post: 637021, member: 15903"] So you have changed your effective gearing and speedometer calibration, by having a smaller external circumference than 185/80 R14 tyres, resulting in a higher engine RPM and higher indicated road speed for a given true road speed. The tyre size for 15 inch wheels, closest in external circumference to that of 185/80 R14 tyres, is the 195/70 R15 which is what is used on the VW Transporter T4. [/QUOTE]
