dukest 0 Posted March 5, 2007 have some solitudes that i want to do something with but I'm not that desperate to go for 205/50/15 tyres again. i have them on my speedlines and i just think they look a bit like seaside rubber rings.. :roll: even if i'm not trying to get to furkz' level, they're just about the opposite what you'd call stretched.. :) the car is dropped on koni/h&r and i'd like to try to go lower soon but I know that if I go too small with the wheels/tyres overall it would just accentuate the fact that the 15in wheel is basically undersized anyway. so, would 195s at least stop the bulge of the tyre over the rim - should i go even smaller? thoughts or pics of 195 or 185 on 15s would be appreciated!! cheers john Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted March 5, 2007 you might find yourself stuffed a bit tho if you have an accident and don't have the proper tyres,the VR came specced with 205/50/VR15's so anything less than that might give the insurance a way out of paying a claim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted March 5, 2007 fair point but would that not apply to all non-standard rims/tyres though rodders? eg. i had 205/40/17s on my old bbs rxIIs and they're probably not the right width for 7.5js? cheers john Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted March 5, 2007 true but as you have to declare mods like that,they probably wouldn't know if that was a suitable tyre combo,however as the Corrado was designed/specced to run on 205 profile they would probably void a claim if they found it to be undertyred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ralphead 0 Posted March 5, 2007 I've had tyres too narrow for the rims before and the sudden "break away" over the limits of grip is scary. Not exactly progressive! 7.5' is alright for 205's but nearly too wide. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
