what tyres to use?? what size?

[fatttty]

Do you want stretch or not? I had 14x9 Steffans and ran 195 45 Toyo Proxies obviously with that width they were stretched.

On 6J they would fit with no stretch at all. Depends what you want.

You might get a small stretch with a 165, but look here at a 6 inch rim with a 155\55...

You won't really need to run a stretch unless you are putting big spacers on as they'll be way tucked in. Go for straight tyre walls, they look and perform best.

ok thanks for the advice

but wouldnt i have to get my arches rolled?

[Silver!]

They're ET38, so as I said, unless you put massive spacers on you'll be nowhere near your arches.

...as a matter of fact I think the standard Arosa alloys which you are running will be about the same settings. Are they 6" though?

[Kez1990]

ok thanks one more question tho lol

what size tyres?

[Silver!]

I personally would go for something like a 175\50 it's a but smaller in rolling diameter and sidewall than your standard 185\55.

...but if you want stretch you will need something like those 155\55s

Here's a pic of 175\50 and as I expected it has a nice straight sidewall.

Tyrestretch.com is back up now.

the only 175/50 u get in 14" are pirelli and sonar..bothe are incredibly overpriced id go 165/55

or 165/60, will give you a straight sidewall and is slightly lower profile than the standard size of 185/55
