Right Tyre Size For Lowering

[collis 0]

Im looking to lower my 205 around 30mm front and back and currently have tyres of 195/60 (bought with car) which look to over sized, as i can see that a 30mm drop would cause it to rub badly on the back. im looking to go for 195/50 instead is this going to be fine. was just wonder what over people are running.

they should be 185 55 15" which wont rub at all as long as your beam is in good condition.

 

most people use 195 50 without issue though.

 

I'm surprised 195 60's even fitted!

cheers for the advise. yea its pretty tight at the back at the moment and the beam is in good condition

Ya 195/50s fit well or even 45s

I run 195/45s and i havn't had any problems with them the clearance is fine altho they do look a bit odd but its different i guess
