rear tire

Does anyone know if a 200/60/16 mc tire will fit on an 08 nomad?

Sid,

I have the 2005, stock is a 170. I just put on a 180. Fits fine, but I had to let all the air out of the new tire when I put it on otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do it if it had air in it. Don't know if the 08 has same size or not.

I've never seen a tire that size. Some folks put a 205 car tire on their 1600, but it doesn't leave much room to spare. I'd think a 200 *should* fit.

Mike, I've thought along the same lines as Scott, that if a 205 CT will fit, that a 200 MC tire should fit. I've also thought that if I ever went back to a MC tire it would be the Avon Rear Cobra AV72 200/60HR-16. Of all the different MC tires I've ran, I like the Avon Cobra's the best.

C'mon Mike, give the ct another try.....with enough miles to get use to it. Remember what I told you....... ;)

I agree with the others that if a 205 fits a 200 should, but whats wrong with a 160 to 180 tire. I really don't see the need to put such a wide tire on for no gain of any sort.

The reason i was looking at a 200/60/16 is because it has the closest specs to the stock tire except width of course. I wanted to get away from the stones and Avon and Dunlop both have that size in a radial.

A taller tire will help get rid of the speedo error, without the need of a speedohealer.

My 07 Nomad and my 09 voyager would run the Metzeler 180/70-16
