jamiea7x Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 any other tire the same size as the falkens matestretch is all about tire size compared to the rim width ie narrow tire + wide wheel= stretched looku dont get a 195/45 stretch tyre and a 195/45 normal tyre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamD Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Try going down to a 165/50.Won't get much of a stretch on your rims using a 195/45 tyre, although I found Nankangs had a lot lower sidewall, so you could try them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDGM Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) www.stretchedtyres.co.uk and some more.Seriously though, I'm looking at some 9s for the rear of the Fiesta and have seen 195/40s on them. Might go for 215s for practicality if the plan comes together. Edited January 15, 2009 by IDGM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vworks41 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Falken still do the ZE-512's in that size, and with the built in rim protector it makes it look like they abit of a stretch aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
