    Quick question on tyres

    Don't really understand the plate behind the fuel cap on my mk4 golf. It's says load rating 91 and speed rating not lower than V. Was looking at tyres and was wondering if a 94Y tyre would be legal?

    Thanks

    91 is the minimum load rating you have to use - 615kg per wheel
    A 94 rating is 670kg per wheel - you are safe

    Quick question on tyres

    Thanks fellas.

    Dylan - yeah ended up finding s3 wheels and the guy had Pirelli P7 235/45/17's cheap so was just wondering if they were all good.
