you sure there 7.5 and not just 7?

As for stretch you only need it if your really low or wheels protruding arches!

I'd say 185/ 45 / 15 for a bit of stretch!

I have 15 x 7.5 Ronal's and I'm going to try 165/50's..... :-D

Serious stretch there DBT!

Like stuuuupid amounts of stretch!

Yeah I'm not really all that sure about stretch but need it for clearance!!

Not sure about safety etc... must be ok never heard any complaint's or horror story's.

As for your streach it depend's how big a steach you want, try mytyres.co.uk and have a look on there, you get get away with 165's for the extreme streach!!!! :lol:

damn I've been on this forum a week now and i cant belive how many times this gets asked :D looks like stretch is the new vento front haha

thanks guys for the help!

much apreciated!!

stretch ftw!

Hi there mate i was wondering about this as well! 165/50 you will get a serious mad stretch like mike said. If you go for 185/45 that will give you a nice stretch. But the tyre's are pretty hard to get but www.mytyres.co.uk have them in nankang ns-2 about £34.80 per tyre delivered. They are not the best tyres in the world. Also there is the 195/45 there won't be any stretch i think but you can get a better tyres for them! I got the same size rim as you 15x7.5 and I'm going to go for 185/45. I hope that helps.

I'm going 185/45s on 7.5 n 8.0. (yes its takin me aaaaages to sort it..lol)

was thinkin bout 165/50 all round but wouldnt trust the 8s. :-(

cos people are stupid ;)

I thought this gets asked soo many times it should be set in stone now.

Half the problem is that people don't search.

^ to be fair, the search function is crap though!

Yeah but for questions like this you just need to go back a couple of pages and you'll find loads of questions on tyre stretching!

I have 155 on a 7 :lol:
