Clapped out Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) 195 or 205/60's, will be a great fit still retaining the original rolling diametre. Edited August 24, 2012 by Clapped out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukemo1982 Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 sorry i took so long -20.5 i measured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxsammy Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) 2nd vote for 195/60 or 205/60, will be good and an easyish size to find. If you can't find any tyres with white lettering you can buy white tyre marker pens and colour the letters yourself. I've done it before and it came up pretty good. If your car is pretty low you might get some rubbage. Could fit 185/60 if rubbing is an issue. Edited August 27, 2012 by rxsammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono.C Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I run 185/60's on my 14x7's and they're a good fit. Not oversize but not undersized. Would help avoid scrubbing a tad compared to a 195 or a 205 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh-KE Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) Is the car lowered? 205/60 tyre on a 14x7 -20 rim will scrub stock guards if the car is low. I have 175/65 on 14x7s with 0 offset and i still get some minor scrubbing on the rear. Its pretty low though.. oh and it has 5mm spacers so more like -5 offset. 185 would be the go. That what i will be getting next. What ever you do let us know how it goes. I love white tyre writing! Wanna see pics!
