Tyre Choice Does it make the difference?

enis · 25th February 2008, 15:28

I've ordered Goodyear EAGLE F1 Asymmetric 225/45 R17 94Y XL, and then I figured out that the load index should be 91, I guess?
Does it make a big difference?
Shall I cancel the order?
Please guys help me, it's rather urgent!

P.S. The car is 2.2 Sport with Michelin Sport PS2 on four corners.

Tyre Sidewall Explained

Have a look at this site, it explains all. You should be ok according to this as they are a higher load

You are completely fine to order the XL tyres, although they may be slightly more expensive than the normal load ones.

Thanks guys. I got these for 120 Euro each and I've heard a lot of praise for the new Eagle tyre. But they were available only with 94 load index and I realized that after I made an order.
I'll let you know once I put them on how they feel.
