vw t4 change tyres dimensions

[aris]

Hello everyone, I own a vw t4 california exclusive. Tyres dimensions are 205/65/R15.
If i change the dimensions to 205/70/R15 will i have any problem with abs or anything else?
Does anyone knows about that?

Interested to know why the small change? Anyway an online calculator gave these results for speedo error, Ride height change etc.

This change is because i need load rating 100 and i can't find anywhere in my country the original dimensions with this rating. The car was bought from another country.

An interesting dilemma. The change shouldn’t have any effect on your ABS. As you can see by the comparison the most major change will be the speedo accuracy.

You should be fine with that size. I run 215/75 on std 15" vw steels on my other T4. That's as big as you can go without modification. The Speedo on mine reads perfect now against the sat nav.

So you have no problem with the abs system?

Such a small change in dimensions won’t effect your ABS.

No problem with ABS at all.

Lots of 102 load rating in your existing size, can you go up in load rating legally in Greece? Can do in UK.
