Is it right that my 2008 3.0sd has 106Y load/speed rated Duelers on the front and 110W's on the rear?

Very helpfully the previous owner has tried to peel off the sticker inside the drivers door jam, so I cant tell.

Am also thinking of moving to non-rft's

Thanks

The weight numbers (106/110) are fine, but both axles should really be either a W or Y, not one of each.

Thanks Richard - my car previously belonged to a lady from Cheshire..  so I am rightly or wrongly assuming she got talked into having fitted whetever the tyre shop at the time had in stock!

Now to decide if I should stick with RFT's; either Duelers or Dunlop SP Sport Maxx's.... thoughts?

Cheers,
