Tire rim size people run?

Post by Grajeda »

Searched but didnt find if this has been asked already. But lets see what rim and tire size everyone runs. Want to see how 15x8 195/40/15 or small tires would look on my dime and trying to find what size to use (pics please) 8)

You'd be better served searching for people running your same rim size and offset. But you'll still have to deal with the differences due to suspension setup (which you didn't mention) and ride-height differences (which you also didn't mention). Would probably also be easier to ask about a tire size that exists.
Because when you spend a silly amount of money on a silly, trivial thing that will help you not one jot, you are demonstrating that you have a soul and a heart and that you are the sort of person who has no time for Which? magazine. – Jeremy Clarkson
