Title: What size tyres??
Post by: RSCPK on 11 October 2009, 19:22

Probably been asked a million times before but what size tyres should be fitted to 7.5j x 16" alloys on a mk2?? Want to keep speedo as accurate as possible. Thanks.

195/45 or 215/40 for speedo accuracy.

I've run the same 205 45 Toyo's on 16" porsche rims in 6, 7 and 8j and they were spot on on the 7j rims.

No rubbing and a nice profile etc
