I also have 20 inches but in Europe they are staggered 275 and 305. For me the best choose. I like the look and the comfort is good.

Interesting - this is the pertinent regulatory reference from the NTHSA in the US for labeling requirements:
Paragraph S4.3 of FMVSS No. 110
requires manufacturers to affix a placard
to each passenger car’s glove
compartment door or an equally
accessible location showing the
vehicle’s capacity weight, designated
seating capacity, the manufacturer’s
recommended cold tire inflation
pressure for maximum loaded vehicle
weight, the manufacturer’s
recommended tire size designation, and,
for a vehicle equipped with a non-
pneumatic spare tire assembly, the non-
pneumatic identification code required
by FMVSS No. 129, New Non-
Pneumatic Tires for Passenger Cars.
Most US cars manufactured since 2003 have the placard located on the driver's side door pillar, but it can be located elsewhere. Sounds like European regulatory requirements may be different, but as long as ranges are within manufacturing tolerances shouldn't matter. |
The picture I posted is the sticker on my drivers door. But it looks different than yours indeed.
The only thing is that I have a 45e which is a heavier car. Maybe that can explain the difference. I don't know.
I can't explain the difference either.
