Re: will these tires work? 200 1980

When daughter drove her 245 back to Syracuse after Thanksgiving breaks, it always had four mounted snow tires. The lake effect snow seems to strike early and deep in your neck of the woods.

195's will replace the 185's OK. Your speedometer will read lower than true speed by a few percent because, at a fixed speed, the larger tires will turn slightly slower than the originals.
