hi chaps could you please advise me on the following............... at the moment i have standard steels with standard tyres, i want to fit 195/80 14 tyres, and want to know if i am correct in thinking that..... acceleration will be slower but engine revs will be lower at any given speed, also speedo is reading high so will these tyres bring indicated speed closer to actual speed? apologies for cloppery but i just can't get my head around all this cheers baldy

sounds about right there chap.. my last van had oversized rears and stock diameter fronts - running on 16" alloys.
had a 1.9TD in it so torque was great and with larger rear tyres got a good cruising speed
