Is 275/55/19 legal in WA?

[Leo]

A friend is moving to Perth, WA, from Africa and is trying to find out if the 275/55/19 tyres fitted to his RRS are legal. The car was ordered with Australian spec and has a compliance card, but he's unsure about the tyres and whether or not they'll check the size when it arrives in Perth.

Thanks in advance for any info/advice.

the answer is here somewhere

used to have a direct link but the site's changed

In WA the maximum legal variation in tyre diameter is 50mm. So he should be fine - these work out to around 48mm bigger.

these work out to around 48mm biggerHow about half that - 23mm?

Edit: oops, that's for the D3/4.

Yes, we poor RRS owners are a little more handicapped ................
