Re: Tire sizes

Hi Neil, I am close enough to Calgary, I check kijiji everyday. Am I missing something? All the tires are too big or small. Or like the above post, the rims don't fit my model. I don't think I've ever seen a make of car with so many size variations.

Re: Tire sizes

I found some 205/65/15 winters on steel rims for $300. They are off an early 2000 Ford Taurus.
I attached (factory rims specs picture). The second vehicle is the Taurus. It seems the centre bore will be loose. And the stud size????
Would this be a risk?

Re: Tire sizes

I am wondering if a 205/55/16 might work? It is only a 2% difference. When I bought my front brake hoses they asked if I had 15 or 16 inch wheels. Not sure why that matters? Maybe different calipers.
Just don't want to buy 16 inch and find they don't fit.

Re: 1998 v70xc p0116 code

Returned the fan relay. A/c was charged and dye added. Seems good (so far). Fan turns on in a/c just not "immediately". As far as the error code. It has not shown up again. Maybe a hiccup? If it comes again I'll replace cts and thermostat.

Re: 1998 v70xc p0116 code

okay, turned on a/c, banged the relay and the fan worked and stayed on.
Grounded each connector in the middle relay plug, both the fast and slow speeds worked.
Reattached relay turned on a/c and fan did not work. When I banged it, the fan only spun a quarter turn, every bang.
