Changing Alfa Romeo Tyres
Changing the Alfa Romeo Car Tyres should require 3 primary choices:- The overall quality of the tyre (durability, wear, ratings, cost) desired for the Alfa Romeo
- The speed rating that the Alfa Romeo Tyres should have depending upon the driver's average and occasional "fastest-driven" speed
- Deciding if local and/or regional weather patterns merit keeping two sets of tyres for dry vs. wet road conditions
Further, if an owner wishes to put tyres on different sized wheels for the Alfa Romeo, a careful decision about what size tyres will be valid for that Alfa Romeo is required. If, for example, a larger wheel size is desired, then the profile (height) and/or the width must be reduced to avoid damaging the drive train. A 195/65/15 tyre for that Alfa Romeo, for instance, on a 17" rim, could legitimately become a 165/65 (narrower) or a 195/55 (shorter) but could not stay a 195/65 as before. A handy calculator for changing tyre sizes can be found here.
All tyres for any Alfa Romeo vehicle should be fitted using the proper torque, according to the manufacturer's specifications. Torque is the amount of pressure used to tighten the wheel nuts. For tyres that are fitted to the following Alfa Romeo models, the torque settings are listed. Also, the recommended air pressure to put into tyres for Alfa Romeo models is listed. Further, the alternate tyre size for Alfa Romeo models.
