By Lawrence Minnie 

How much different do tyre sizes have to be between the entry level and sports version of a model? We pulled up the specification sheets for the Renault Megane and checked out the differences.

Serious rubber for the Renault Megane’s tyre size

The Renault Megane is probably one of the most bi-polar cars on sale in South Africa.

The entry level models are perfect city runabouts that are frugal on fuel and light on the pocket, but let the engineers over at Renault loose, and all of a sudden you have fire breathing track monsters up at the performance end of the grade walk.

Naturally, when you upgrade the performance characteristics of a car, the tyres must follow suit.

We take a look the model grade walk for the Renault Megane in South Africa and see what size tyres these models use.
