    hello all. i’ve read on here that you can’t have different width tyres front to back on a syncro because they’ll have different rolling radii, and you have to have the same model of tyre on both axles for the same reason, in order to prevent wind up in the transmission. given that the weight of the front of the car is not the same as the back (and that this will affect effective rolling radius at a given pressure) what tyre pressures should i be running front and rear? or does it not really matter..

    tyer pressure are on inside of petrol flap, tyer pressures are inportant for same reasons as any other car, windup in the transmition from tyer pressures is not an issue i’m aware of

    cheers danny, just thought i’d make sure. i suppose it’s only really a problem if your front tyres are practically flat.
