My G300 has 275/70 R16 tyres. One of them has an illegal repair and I would like to return the tyres to stock size. However the rims are 7.5J 16. Looking on equivalency tables, I see that these rims can fit the 225/75 R16 tyres that were originally on 6 J rims. Is there any reason for not proceeding? I believe the rims may be from a G500 and checking on the web, the offset is the same as the slimmer rims.         Thanks

Re: Correct tyre size

In case you don't have a handbook this is from my owners manual for a 300GE and 300GD.

Is it any help?

Many thanks Mark. Tyres ordered from ATS with special Michelin discount! Much appreciate the reassurance.
