Tyre sizes for my new rims

[tarche2 0]

Hi Guys,

 

Just bought some Porka design 90 16's - Rears are 8" and Fronts are 7".

 

I wondered if anyone has this combo on there car and what size tyres they run. I have spoke to storm developments and they advised me to run 195/40/16's front and back.

 

Anyone know if 195/45.16's would be ok? Also how low I could go as looking to get hieght adjustable coilovers soon.

 

Thanks

 

Tony

The search is your friend mate :roll:, there are a few guys on here running Design 90's, Riley for a start and mtc_R32 etc etc. It depends on whether you want to stretch the tyres or not, as they wont be sticking out the arches you dont really need a stretch so you might want to go wider than 195's and 45 profiles will be too high imo best to stick with 40's cant go wrong there :wink:
