tyre sizes.

what is the perfect tyre wheel size for novas .. to stop the scrubbing on arches . is it 195/45 or /50

[Chris]

195 isnt perfect for a nova as it is wider than what they were designed to have but the 45 profile is much better than the 50 IMO

[epo]

id say the same about the 45 profile

lucky for you my car comes with 195\45\15" tyers on it :lol: :wink:

[raza]

so what should it be 190/45

[raza]

yea epo thats what i want:P need somone to buy my car as i dont think i can keep two :P

[epo]

ive never seen 190 or less tyers in a 15" size :?

[Philsutton]

i wouldnt go any more than 195 wide

[raza]

so the 195 is the width ,, whats the middle one?? so as long as i get 195 somthing 16 its ok?

[epo]

its the profile of the tyer id go for 45 looks better than 50 imo

[raza]

hard to get i looked in halfords and dint see 1 set with 45 :| most was 195 / 50

[Marc]

to be honest halfords arnt great for stuff you need lol because they a shop not a car business.

best bet would be to go to a tyre company or a garage and ask there, they deal with this stuff all day long and will get a good price on a tyre of 45 and fitment on the wheel.

my mates pays 70 for a yoko per wheel inc fitment. i got a budget tyre thats half the price and with fitment. also yoko dont last that long.

i found silver stone are a good buy. a lad i know drives like a looney all the time and he says they dont ware down easily

[epo]

theres a cheap place near me for tyers

right

195/45/15

the 195 stands for the width of the tyre in MM's

the 45 standards for the wall profile, this is % of the width, so 195/6-/15 would have a wall profile that is 60% of the width, 45's will have a profile of 45% of the width. e.t.c e.t.c

and the 15 is the radius in "
