leemus black HDi has cossie wheels at 16x8 and 205/40R16

Tyre stretch is your best bet. Best I can do is 195/50/15 on 8" and 225/40/18 on 8.5"

[rd070707]

I had 185 45 on a 8j and it wasn't that extreme

[Daniel306]

I i was fitting 195 50 15 on 7" wheels what would i fit to the rear to best match the profile size and side wall angle on 8" wheels?

Is it possible to fit 205 on the front of a 306 without rolling the arch?

[rd070707]

If you want 8j rims you are going to need some stretch and a lower profile to get them in. All depends on how low you are how much work you need

[Daniel306]

Iv got some other plans for the rear so it not a problem there

[Daniel306]

Anyone think i can fit 205/50/15 7J on the front and 225/45/15 8J on the rear

You aint gonna get much stretch with 225 on 8j mate.

[Pompey306mark]

I think my new alloys are 8 wide with 205/40/17 on them.

[Daniel306]

Im not looking for stretch tho, 225 is the correct size for 8j?

[Daniel306]

What is the tyre size ? Got any side on photos?

[Birk]

195/45/15 on 8s look good.

this...my 195 falkens were damn near as stretched as my 185 nankangs

Yeah, the 195/15 Pirelli p6000's (yes I know, got them cheap) I have on the van hardly look stretched at all on an 8.5j wheel.

Yea, hence why I've put 3 different pictures up of 3 different tyres.
