MK2 Mondeo Tyre Sizes - Craig_1969
I just bought a 1998 200k Mondeo TD estate. Not too bad really for £700 with a bit of tax and 6 months mot.

I noticed the speedo was overreading by about 10% and figure its because the wheels look like they are off an escort and are 185/60 R14 and are smaller than Mondeo's.

I have found a set on ebay which are 195/60 R15 is this the correct size?

Thx

My 2000 TD hatch wears 195/60 R15's so yes I would say they're right.

Just found a set of this size fairly local but they are on Corsa steel wheels, can anyone tell me if they will fit a Ford.

Thx

195/60 R15 is the correct size for your car. If you wanted to upgrade to alloys 205/50 R16. Both have the same circumferences.
