Looking at a van, small Iveco A class, 40 17 chassis
Front tyres 225/65 R16C
Rear tyres(x4) 195/75 R16C

Is this normal, all tyres need changing but you can't get 195/75 R16C in winter tyres as far as I can tell. We have always used winters all year.

40 0r 50 chassis, 40 would be 4 tonne, Morelo fit different sizes back and front axle on their 50C chassis Home.

I said Martin, 40C 17, would want to fit winters all round.

Hi Paul, I know what you said I just didn't think they did "A Class" on the 40C and looks like you are right about no winters in 195 75 16 which surprises me that the Germans are fitting them to vans in the winter.

Beat me to it, have been looking this week at that size from Mytyres. They have a good selection and my current choice is Maxxis LA-MAS which are all season not just winter and look the part.
They are a good VFM make Sold quite a lot of the 4x4 variety of these in Australia :)

I suspect Paul that that chassis should have the 195/75/16 size on it all round and that at some point in the vechicles life it has gone into a garage needing tyres on the front and that may have been all they had in on the day .PM sent.
