just bought a set of rota grids 6.5j and 7j x15

standard tyres for them are 195's i think? but i want a bit of stretch so was thinking 175's?

obviously, because it's my daily, i want them to not ware too much or be too harsh a ride.

was just wondering if anyones got the same dimensions with the same tyres and could give feedback on what they're like and the amount of ware they get?

its for my polo 6n2, lowered about 90mm on coilys

if anyone has any pictures of theirs that would be great!

cheers :-)

The size shouldn't effect the wear. The tyre pressures would make more of a difference.

well i got the tracking done a couple weeks ago because where i'd lowered it, it just shredded the tyres ahaha

all seems fine now, just wondering weather obviously the width will affect the ware

No.

probably shredded tyres because it wasnt tracked up properly :lol:

165/50's.

165/50 up front and a 185/45 on the rear. That'll sit nice then.

175/50's a good choice.

Might need a tad arch rolling if your low enough. :)

bet you had bundles of fun getting those on!

Looks good on the wheels but taking off the wind deflectors, rear wiper and stickers would really clean up the lines of the car.
