Bongo Fury

I have two slow punctures on my Bongo & I need a Spare - all 4 tyres are 215/65 15 & my Bongo is a 4wd. I read that in fact I should have 195/70 15 on the front - so I did a search & directed to the Bongo fact sheet - NOW I'm really confused
What should I do - replace the two slow punctured tyres with 195/70 15 to the front & a 215/65 15 as a Spare

No, my advice would be to leave it as 215/65 all round.

The original spec from Japan was 195 front and 215 rear, but for UK conditions 215 all round makes much more sense.

Is that because of good road surfaces in UK as I shall be doing some driving in Europe heading down to Bulgaria - which is full of potholes

That can happen if you have mismatched tyre sizes, but 195/70 and 215/65 are close enough in diameter not to matter. Using 215/65 all round means there is no mismatch at all and plenty on here use same size all round without problem.

Thankyou will go ahead with the all being the same - Got a spare Wheel

Out of interest, are the tyres not repairable? I had a puncture on one of my beautiful Pirelli P7s and they said it couldn't be repaired as too near the edge of the tread. I persevered and eventually found a local vulcanizing service. Not expensive and 100% fixed it -yippee

YES I expect they can be repaired but that's why I asked the question on having 195/70's on the front - if that was the case it would have made more sense to replace them
However I know a place that would put a very good tyre on, for only a little bit more than a puncture repair ( what in the old days were called runners)
