Tires


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone - I'm sure you know the struggle of finding winter tires for our little guy, but do you have any suggestions/recommendations? Does your smart have staggered tires? I'm having a hard time finding this config 185 50 R16 (front) 205 45 R16 (rear). There are a few options for summer and performance tires, but nothing for winter.

Welcome to the club/site. There are many fellow owners who have suffered this also and found a way around it. Some change to have wider tires on the fronts, some change the sizing numbers but keep the diameter to allow for best clearances. You can use a tire shop or go on line such as Quattotire where I find my tires for other vehicles as well as my smart. Good luck and again welcome.

Try flyingtiger.ca - they can ship if it's proving difficult to locate elsewhere.

Adjusting the size slightly may reveal additional options, but try to keep the diameter the same front to back. You can generally go +/- 3% without issues.
