How much Lenny? Would you not want to go wider than 190 on the back when standard road is 225, and there's loads of room? What make?

Make em cheap for Richie the kid, and I'll probably take em.

Yo Richy


I have only got 190's ... trust me they are as wide a 205-/215 thats why they need a min of a 6" wheel


I haven't got anything wider and these are Michelin touring car the ones you seen on my focus @ bedford rember

Sorry to butt in on your thread but what would size slicks would I need to replace 195/45/15 tyres? And how does the profile of slicks relate to the profile of the road equivelant? Do road legal track day tyres have profiles like slicks or road tyres?

Cheers for reading.

as long as you have got a 6" wheel they are fine even on your xr/rst/cossies/pug anything with a 15" wheel x 6j and the profiles are low because they are touring car slicks Not rally Tarmac slicks
