Default AX tx5 tyres

I just got to work and noticed that my rear tyres are stuffed, in fact one is so bad it looks like if I drive on it again I'll delaminate it.

Now the question is, can I run a set of 205/60's on the rear without any ill effects?

Thanks for your help

you can only run the tyres specified on the tyre placad /sticker
should be under the bonnet in the glovebox or on a door frame/ask a tyre supplier

I also have trouble with rear tyres on the AX. In the past I have delaminated to the steel belts. I found the rear rotors warped when I took them off and lay them on flat concrete. New rotors seem to have solved the problem and rotate the tyres regulary.
