[QUOTE="derek, post: 55225, member: 527"] Glen, I have looked at the Avon fitment chart and agree but also wonder if (as I am Changing rims) whether to get as they recommend MT instead of WM rims? From another web page that gives profiles, the difference is that the WM has a flat bead seat, the MT has a 5degree taper bead seat which slopes down towards the well. Also from the various downloads it can be seen that the tyre profile effects the rolling diameter by quite a lot, surely this will change the steering head angle, is this why the feel of the steering changes?
