Production Car Specification Sheets

[ajrecord]

I've been reading the Blue Book 2012 - L 2.2 regarding tyres and it mentions "Production Car Specification Sheets"

Where do I find the "Production Car Specification Sheets" for a particular car?

I read that as what the car (model) was fitted with when it came out of the factory,
ie: If a production car model was fitted with 185/55/15 from the factory the tyres can not be replace buy 195/50/15 tyre (wider tread) or 5"1/2j rim to 7"j rim etc.

Thank you, now I can make an informed tyre (and wheel) choice... I couldn't think of anything else but thought I should check...

The Blue Book suggests there are "specs" but I couldn't find any.

My reading of L 2.2 is that this only applies to "racing" not speed events.

For you, I would suggest that S 11.6.2 is all that applies.
i.e. - List 1A or 1B tyres
(unless otherwise stipulated in SRs).......
