Questions regarding Yokohama Avid s/t 235-60R-15:
1. What is the difference on 60 & 60R?
2. Does this size fit on the hard spare tire cover?
3. How about the performance of your "V' when you change to that size, did
it effect the speed?

I am about to purchase the same tire that you have at tirerack.com but
waiting for any responce specially number# 2 because i just purchase a hard
cover at HandA-accessories.com

1. R is for radial
2. NO retained original spare, 235's are 1/2 shorter but MUCH wider. The
soft or hardcovers from the factory will not fit.
3. quicker take-off speed due to the shorter tire than factory spec, amazing
a 1/2 inch makes a difference. I WOULD NOT want a taller tire than
factory
