    Sirs,

    just wanna ask if there would be problem that might arise if i use 185/60 tires in front and 185/65 rear. By the way i'm using Rim 14. Some says, a problem may arise in the uneven wearing of tires, suspension, etc..Can i ask opinions from the masters/mechanic here?

    Thanks a lot!

    there shouldn't be a problem unless you have anti lock brakes or awd drivetrain

    with abs, all the speed sensors must have the same rotational speed or the same pulses from the wheel speed sensors except on turns for the abs to be able to activate should the wheels start to lock up. as with awd, you will have three differentials; front, center and rear. the center differential will always be compensating regardless you are traveling straight

    I am planning to replace tires for my pajero, currently using bridgestone dueler 31x10.50 R15. Any suggestions for a cost effective yet durable brand of tires.
