As far as the Mini's and 175/50-13. There has been quite a few accidents in Germany where the combination of 175/50-13 and 7-8x13 rims has casused blow-out (RE: RTL Explosiv)

whats the best air pressures to have in 175/50-13 on 7-8x13? :paranoid:

On the reifenfreigabe Dunlop used to have for their 8-13 and 175/50-13 (before they had to take it back) for Polo's they stated 36 psi, which is max of what the tyre can take safely

So a 185/50/15 will stretch onto a 7x15" rim?

I've got 6x15 BBS RA's and i want my tyres as stretched as possible. what size tyres do i need? (I'm 16 years old and i find all of this bloody confusing...)

you're gona be hard pushed to get any sort of stretch on a 6" rim.

You do not want tyres, you want wider rims

hmm, wonder what a 165/45 would look like on an 8x15?

wonder if it will even go on?

Jez i have seen a pic of one on a 7.5" and it looked really bad. Looked like it would pop of at any moment.

Will check when i get home to see if i saved the pic

165/45-15 on 8-15 ML

Over-stretching is just plain stupid though

bloody hell thats all kinds of crazy. 165s have a slight stretch on a 6J wheel! :o

175/50/13 on 8" & 195/45/13 on 8.5" rims.....Stretch looks Cool IMO

for a 6-15, you cant have stretch. You need wider wheels!

Pretty sure thats a pic of one of the rear wheels from Ben Chandler's Brown Euro Saxo. IIRC thats a 195/40/14 Conti sport on a 9J schmit wheel.

Scar's the fook outa me as you can literally get your fingertips in between the tyre bead and the edge of the rim plus checkout the buldge in the side walls? :shock: :shock: :shock:

Fuck being the tyre fitter who had to do that!

I got 185/45/15on an 8J rim, Stretch is just about right :).
