Tires: tires, tire placard, plymouth voyager


Question
will 205/70/15 tires, work on a 97 Plymouth voyager that has 215/75/15 currently on it

Answer
Michelle,

On every vehicle sold in the US - and I understand this is a worldwide practice as well - there is a sticker – commonly called the tire placard - that lists the original tire size and the proper pressure for that size.  The placard is usually located on a doorpost or in the glove box – but sometimes it is located in the trunk or on the fuel filler door.

BTW, it doesn't matter who makes the tire or what pressure is listed on the tire's sidewall, if the tire size is the same as the placard, then the pressure listed on placard is also appropriate.

Tire Guides, a publication that summarizes vehicle tire placards, says that a 1997 Plymouth Voyager originally caem with either P205/70R14's or P215/65R15's - and that means a P205/70R15, which is the functional equivalent will work.

But just be sure to verify that Tire Guides is correct by reading the placard.
