guys may nabili me car ang tire size is 205/45/16 and i need to replace the rear na kasi its getting kalbo na, kaso that specific tire is too expensive, the lowest na nakita ko ay 3200 ang isa i forgot the brand but its made in indonesia. one tire dealer told me na mag 195/50/16 na lang ako pasok din daw yun sa mags ko. para mas makamura daw ako 2400 lang kasi yun. i need other opinions puwde nga ba yun? wala bang magiging problema yun if i place that size of tire sa rear ko? or should i place it in front kaya? or what? thanks po in advance hope somebody could help.

based sa computations, ang sidewall ng nasabi mong mga gulong ay 92.25mm para sa 205 at 97.5mm para sa 195. or a difference of 5.25mm. i don't know kung magkaka effect to sa balance ng load kasi hindi na magpapantay ang height ng likod at harap na gulong. so may safety issue.

kung ok lang naman regarding load balancing, kung sa harap mo ilagay yung 195, mas mataas sya kesa sa likod. kung baliktad naman, mas malapad naman ang sa harap. parehong wierd tignan. hehe. so i suggest na ipareho mo na lang hehe

mas okay palitan mo na lahat ng the same size then ibenta mo yung old tires. kung okay pa naman ang groove ng tires mo you can sell it more than 1,500 pa.

hindi naman ganoong kalaki ang difference ng sizes nila. kung normal lang naman driving habits mo, i think pwede. you can just have the 2 new tyres installed in the front wheels tapos yung galing sa front ang ilipat mo sa rear tyres mo.
