Hi all,

Surprisingly I cant seem to find much on the correct tyre speed for my 206 GTi 138.

I cant seem to find this info in the manual (yes I had to crack it out) either. One website said W but that was as much as I could find.

Looking at the tyre speed calculators on the web I could get anything from
H and above as I doubt the car will go faster than 110 but to me this doesn't sound right. Would V and above suffice? I don't want to be in trouble with the law... Smile

V would be suffice considering the supposed top speed is 130mph for a stock 138.

Is there anything else to take into consideration? Or will V speed rating suffice and be legal?

V would be more then suffice mate. The only time it would be illegal technically would be to low of a rating for your particular car and failing an MOT demming it un-road worthy.
