i have just bought some 15x7j deep dish amils et25 which i'm hoping to fit some 175/65/15 to as i've seen a brand new set for ?100.

anybody know if my combo will work?

Cheers,

you wanna get 165's on a 7" rim they go on no problem without looking mega stretched, 195's will also go on an 8 and 8.5" rim but the latter wil look seriously streched tho, also depends what make of tyres your planning on using aswell.
