Forskjell på dekk og reservehjul

[VLH]

Vurderer å kjøpe 205x65x15 vinterdekk og ikke 205x70x15 som er original
dimensjon.

Lurer litt på hvordan dette vil påvirke mulig bruk av reservehjul på bilen
min. Har en 1997 Subaru Legacy Outback og denne har som kjent
firehjulstrekk. Vil en slik forskjell i dekkdim kunne skade drivverket på
noen måte? Det er også mulig å koble ut firehjulstrekket med en sikkring
under panseret. Da er det forhjulsdrift og bilen spinner for et godt ord.
Bør jeg i så fall gjøre dette ved bruk av reservehjul? Reservehjul og de
vanlige dekkene vil jo uansett aldri ha 100% rulleomkrets. Reservehjulet er
ellers av type "mini".....

It is interesting that "Forskjell" is "Forester" in Norwegian. Does the
emblem actually say "Forskjell"?

No. "Forskjell" means difference. The subject said : "Different tires than
spare tire" and what I asked was if it would be a problem to use the
standard spare tire if I switched from 205x70x15 to 205x65x15 tires on my
Legacy Outback.

The Forester is called Forester in Norway to and is a very popular car. The
Outback however is very strongly taxed because of the engine size and you
have to pay nearly 100 k $ with the 3.0 l engine!!

I should have picked up on that. Actually looked at Alta Vista translations
but there is no Norwegian.
We have a gas guzzler tax but nowhere near what your's is. Makes more sense
to tax on mileage then engine size.

They tax on three different dimensions:
1) engine volume
2) car weight
3) power (KW, HP)

The price of one LITRE of gas in Norway is about $ 1,50

Not exactly the ideal country if you like cars...

Yes, I know about most of Europe. Gas tax is ~7X that of US but with gas
approaching $2/gallon, there are lots of current bargains on big SUV's.
With my Forester, I can go most places the big SUV's can go at over twice
the mileage
