weslangdon Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Has anyone fitted 185/60/14 tyres instead of the slightly lower profile standard items? I'd guess there'll be a marginal over read to the speedo but these may increase ride comfort, and by narrowing the wheel arch gap give the impression of being lowered without the suffering. They won't increase cornering performance but they are a very common tyre and the 55's are far less easy to source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) it's basically the same as running 195 50 15 which many people do including myself. But the 60 profile might look a bit chunky because of more sidewall. http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=195&aspect=50&diameter=15&wheelwidth=7&offset=35&width2=185&aspect2=60&wheel_size=14&wheel_width=7&offset2=35#isPage=1 Edited August 9, 2016 by Sausage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weslangdon Posted August 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I get that, the wider tyres give more grip but the drawback is worse fuel consumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 You'd have to be doing a shitload of mileage to be able to notice the difference though as it would be small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
