Can anyone offer advice on XL or non XL tyres?
I can't find anything in the hand book!
Most tyre dealers say, I need XL, even micra's & clio's use them these days mate, is their usual monkey response. Are they just trying to get people to spend more?
Everything I read suggests that a light car doesn't need them, and the XL tyres will stiffen the ride. I'm trying to make it softer.
Interestingly XL Tyres have a lower load capacity at the same pressure as standard tyres, and only have XL capacity at a higher than standard pressure!
Does that make them softer than Non XL at a standard pressure?
Any proper advice is much appreciated.
