Are R16 and R17 tires interchangeable?
1 Answers
R16 and R17 tires are not interchangeable. Here are the differences between R16 and R17 tires: Different sizes: The diameter difference between 16-inch and 17-inch rims is 2.54 cm. Different aspect ratios: Tires with lower aspect ratios perform better in providing road feedback and handling lateral support during driving. Different safety levels: In case of a tire blowout, the larger diameter of R17 rims results in less body tilt, reducing the likelihood of sudden directional changes.
