The 206 is a budget vehicle . Smaller tyres mean cheaper car anything to bring down the cost wink

Also smaller tyres also better for fuel economy.

But in the Nigerian context , you are up Against bad roads, and availability.

185 or 195 will suffice without issues
Do you still have tires for sale?

OK thanks, Today I bought another Tokunbo Tyre with manufacturing date 2013 but it looks like brand new based on it physical looks, all the threads intact, the seller assures me that I can use it for up to 2 years or more if I manage it well. My concern is hope it's Ok?. This is my first experience with Tokunbo. Please what is your take? Thanks

Tyres kept in storage , will become brittle, crack and rupture.

Tyres kept in service are still useable several years after manufacture.
