NewDriverOlderRide Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Ok, so after many electrical gremlins, I THINK it's safe to say that the car is good to go again. In the last few months I have suffered from a bad optical sensor in the distributor, bad computer, and the mechanics have spent hours tracing wires searching for the problem. So yesterday the mechanics replaces the bad CPU, takes the car for the test drive, and BAM! there goes the timing belt lol. But at least the car is back, now the tires on the back are starting to show threads because the alighnmint. I currently have 185/70/13 tires, but I found some like new all 4 for 50$, the only problem is that they are 155/80/13. The car is strictly on road, and is lightly driven. Should I buy them?

wallaby Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 those are wayyyyy narrow and you will probably notice the difference in handling - on road especially. if they were studs or off road tires i would say they might work, but on road you should stick with what you have now or close to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zyewdall Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Those are the stock tires for the 2wd EA81 wagons and seem to handle pretty well on them... but the EA82 is a little heavier. You might notice some sidewall sway if you tend to corner hard.... but if you drive it lightly, and don't load up the car with 1000lbs of firewood, it's probably fine.
