Title: time for some new tyres
Post by: jase555 on 26 June 2007, 18:48
Greetings and Salutations, its time for some new tyres. as you can see i have mk4 turbo wheels on my lil old mk2 and i want to put some stretched tyres on.
i have 205/55/16's on at the mo, will 195/40/16's look good or should i go thinner? :undecided:
how thin could i go? eg. 175/40/16's.....

what are the wheels, 6 wide? 205/55's are massive and all wrong for the overall radius on a mk2! 195/45's would be more like the correct size but no real stretch if they are 6's. 195/40's could work. Hmm.... anyway, my answer is too late :tongue: so what did you do?! :)
