I am looking to put some winter tyres on my s2000 and was wondering what would be the effect of running tyres with a higher load rating than recommended and also would it be OK to run different load ratings (but still higher than recommended) on front and back ( I wouldnt mix them on same axle).

The tyres I have located are Nokian Wr g2: 215/45 r17 91V for the front and 245/45 R17 99V for the rear.

Will the 91V on the front combined with 99V on the rear cause me any issues?

Any advice appreciated..

 

Thanks for the reply and useful link.

 

You will have bigger issues by running a 245/45R17 tire that is 1" taller than the stock tire.

 

Yes, I was having difficulty finding the correct size. On reflection I decided the 245/45 were not a close enough size match. Thought about 255/40 which was available but in the end after some thought I have decided to go with a different tyre that is an exact match 215/45 and 245/40.

 

Those sizes would be better.
