Tyre Sizes

Trying to get 15' wheel and tyre height on 14's, with my 206 Eco hdi final drive I'm hoping for a cruiser.

 

Unless you can find me some 15x5 wheels or warn me off tall tyres!

I'd be wary of going to such a tall profile. It will kill steering response.

If you work out the rolling radius of a 185/60/14 and a 195/50/15 the difference is tiny.

I'm trying to go thinner than a 185 to avoid any rubbing, although it's going to have 150bhp so might need some sort of tyre on it!

rebuild the beam, dont run it low, make sure the bump stops are present and I doubt they'll rub.
