What is the correct tire pressure for 21560r16 tires?
The tire sidewall will list the max pressure. Check the owners manual or the driver door jamb sticker for the correct pressure for a vehicle
Can I use 21560R16 or 22560R16 tires to replace the stock 20560R16 tires that came on my 2004 Chrysler Sebring Convertible?
I just put Michelin P215 60 HR 16 Primacy MXV4 tires on our 2004 Sebring Convertible GTC with stock wheels. Car drives and handles much better.
Can you replace 21560R16 with 21565R16 tires?
Yes you can. The difference is minimal but handling and speedometer reading may change slightly. The manufacturer has calibrated the vehicle to the recommended size so you are better off to stick to original specs. The only reason I would make the change is if the new tires were free. Don't mix sizes on the vehicle.
What is the effect of switching 205-55-R16 tires with 205-60-R16 tires?
Sidewall height. 205 = width of the tire, 55 = percent of tire that is sidewall, R16 = rim size. Therefore, if you switch a tire to 205 60 R16, you will have a larger sidewall. Larger sidewalls can cause more flex, degrading the vehicles cornering capability.

What is tire rotation for 2008 dodge charger?
The standard front to back switching sides is ok - but i would recommend bringing the front tires straight back and switching sides as you bring the rear tires forward, as this means there will be 4 rotations before the tire is back in it's 'starting' position vice only 2. This should be done with every oil change. If the tires have a directional tread pattern they will have an arrow on the side showing the direction of rotation. These tires can only go front to back an back to front. They must say on the same side of the vehicle.
Why does my Speedometer read faster than I am driving?
The size of tires can effect that accuracy of a speedometer. Larger tires will cause the speedometer to read less than you are actually going.
Do smaller tires effect speedometer?
Yes. Because the speed is usually measured at the transmission, smaller tires make the speed show faster than is actually travelled.
