I’m doubting myself with tyre diameter, hoping someone can help.
I’m currently running 17x7” with 235/65r17 road tyres and want to drop to 16x8” with 235/70r16, likely with an Insa Dakar.
Using aspect ratio I get the following:
Current set up- 29” diameter
New set up- 28.95”

So it shouldn’t be an issue, however I keep doubting it. Am I right or am I missing something?
Does anyone run 235/70r16 Dakar’s on 8j wheels, if so what’s the outside diameter?

Cheers mate thanks. Arch clearance is the concern, don’t mind the speedo being a little out.

If needs be I will go 235/60r16 which would help quite a lot
