Andro and team you guys did suggest me options on another link

(Problems with my laura) one more query that would add to the confusion on this thread rather than solve things?

Happen to own a pre-owned Laura which has today done about 42000 kms Bought it 12000 kms back. Tyre noice has increased recently though it was never too low.

Current tyres Michellins Energy 205/60-R16 which i had always presumed were stock tyres till I went through the thread where at various places I could gather that:

1) Stock tyres on Skoda L&K Laura are 205/55-R16 but I have 205/60 ?? Do not know the history as it is a preowned car, but this is the right time to change tyres and so the tyres have lasted the distance and are due in another 3000-4000 Kms as per Michellin dealer in Thane Mumbai.

2) Somewhere on this thread it was mentioned that 205/60/16 is a WRONG upgrade for a laura? WHY? COULD SOMEONE PLS EXPLAIN THIS?

3) Now I have an almost new spare tyre that is 205/60/16 so unless I stick to 205/60/16 in my change for 4 new tyres I would require to change 5 tyres to move to 205 or 215 or 225/55/16. Is it required? WHY?

4) If and when I do remap the car would the above tyres be sufficent

Current tyres from Michellin suffer from Tyre noice on bad surface and ok surface as well expecially since last 5K kms. Also comfort is average but maybe it is better than what it would be in 205/55 and I just may not be aware. Ground clearance is sufficent. Braking has been good.

Want VFM, confortable, safe, longlasting and quite tyres. Comfort of the kind that one wants for old parents or pregnant ladies.

Getting Yokos 205/60/16 for 6300 - need 4 (spare stays Michellin) in New Bombay Vashi. Michellin Energy 205/60/16 for 7900 - need 4 and 205/55/16 for 8500 - need 5.
JK V rated 205/60/16 for 5200 - asper dealer not good looking but has low noise and is a good tyre.
Goodyear GP3 - 205/55/16 6K (no 205/60/16 option)
Bridgestone 205/55/16 one guy quoted close to 6K and another close to 7K did not check out specific model

IS CONTINUING WITH 205/60/16 RECOMMENDED FOR MY REQUIREMENT? IF SO I JUST NEED TO BUY 4 INSTEAD OF 5 TYRES. PLAN TO GO FRO YOKO - GOOD IDEA FOR LOW NOICE AND COMFORT?
