Golden rule of changing different size is never out of 3% from original diameter.
Tire shop with knowledge will use tiresize calculator or formula to measure and inform of owner the advantage and disadvantage of changing different size

- Fuel Consumption
- Comfort
- Handling
- Safety Concern (If original car got fitted with ABS/VSA/ASA)
- Suspension/ Bearing (Wear & Tear, Lifespan might impact)
- Speedometer

Want to get some opinions on what brand and model of run flat tyre is good

My priority is

1) Safety during raining or wet road condition (I always worried of my car run over waterpond)
2) Silent driving
3) Sometime hard cornering

I'll occasionally drive fast, so safety is kinda priority

Tyre size :
Front : 245 40 19
Rear : 275 35 19

Just changed my front tires to XM2plus, but the manufacturing week is 14th, which means it is only 6 weeks old.

I heard if tire is too new there will be problem, should I be concerned very much? Should I drive less before the tires 3 months old or I am being paranoid ?

My concern is indeed it being "too new". Some people said new tire takes 3 months to have their rubber and chemical to stabilize, that's why I worried now sad.gif
