Basically you see the same threads coming up again and again. Mainly ones asking about stretching tyres.

Endless amounts of times I see threads for the same sized wheels and it would be nice to have a gallery that shows different tyre sizes on different wheels.

If you can post up your sizes maybe we can come to the point where at lot less people ask the same questions. Obviously there are people to lazy/stupid to search so it'll never be to the point where its not asked anymore. But at least we can flame them in that case

Please make sure you state the tyre size, wheel size and brand of tyre

haha my mate who bought my 8 and 9 inch steffans off me had a 195/45 on the rears and one popped off at 80 on the motorway, him, the car and the rim were fine tho, hes now running 205/45 dunlops on the rear and clocked up silly miles since then. That was on a jetta tho so alot more unsprung weight

ps. i aint turning this into a war about are they safe or not safe, as its a thin line, but I'm just curious and trying to extract some helpful info :)

Please can we keep chatter to a minimum. I want this to be pretty much just a gallery so people can decide what they want.

Not seen your size done before Heartagram! :)

195's on anything wider than 8,5's is idiot-stretch IMHO
