Difference Between 93y And 100w Loadings

[Jap_Muscle]

Hey guys im just in the mist of suspension upgrades and have been looking at some new tyres. my current tyres on the car are 245/35/19 93Y, however the set im looking at are 295/30R19 100W.

the tyres are for the rear and are currently streched over 19x9.5 wheels. are there any issues or things i should know before purchasing them?

if anyone has the time to explain the load reading and what they mean that be great. lastly i hear alot about buying incorrect tyre sizes affecting speedo readings. exactly what on the tyre specs dictates this?

cheers

Old tyre 93Y... The 93 part is the load rating which means the tyre has a load capacity of 650 kgs maximum per tyre. The Y is the maximum speed recommended which is 300km/h.

New Tyre is 100W which means the tyre can safely hold up to 800kgs and a max. recommended speed of 270km/h.

Hope that makes sense..
