85th Anniversary Tyres

Looking at MG Motor Tech Bulletin re tyres.



Recommended tyres for LE500 & 135 are the same as for my TF160: 195/45 16 Front & 215/40 16 rear.



Then spotted details re tyres for the 85th Anniversary. Same on rear as above but fronts are 195/55 16. Why the higher section at the front? Also the 85th Anniversary does not have a spare wheel.



Anyone know why this is?



What would happen if one used 55 section tyres on the front of any other TF with 16 in wheels? Might improve ground clearance! Would it improve "tramlining"?



Who knows??
