Tyres

[Oversize]

FYI going by the GVM (not the placard) the minimum load rating is 91 & the speed rating based on a 260kmh top speed is W or Y. In practical terms a speed rating of S (180kmh) is more than enough however your insurance may disagree

Personally I’d prefer a higher speed rating than load rating, since you’re never likely to exceed the load.

Honestly, unless your tyre blows due to exceeding speed or load, then I’d challenge any denied insurance claim.

205mm wide is fairly common but the 6.9 needs 215mm as a minimum. My preference would be 225/65R14. I just have to find a tyre which also suits minimum load & speed ratings according to the placard

Just be careful not to fit too wide a tyre to the rim, otherwise there may be too much flex in the sidewall that produces friction and heat.

235 is still ok on a 6.5” rim however the rolling diameter is too small at 638mm vs the std 658mm (more than 15mm). So it seems the only choice is 215 or 225

Speedos can be checked by tyre rotation/km. The tyre sites usually have this info as well.
