15x7 Tyre Stretch

Hello people

As my title says im enquiring about what is deemed the best stretch to run on 15x7 rims

i seem to find mentions of mixed thoughts regarding 165/50/15's and 185/45/15

Which do people generally go for? and have people and pics?

heres my 165/50x15 but on a 6.5j rim, I really wouldnt want to run these on a 7j rim!!! but….saying that, the federals I had on before these bridgestone were the same size according to the sidewall but they werent stretched at all.  

cheers for the pic ive gone for 185/45/15 on the 15x7 rim, give a slight stretch but nothing to major

next question, what kinda psi? i run 36/38 in my current 175/50/13 on 13x7

yeah, youll have a bigger footprint than mine too.  mine really struggled on the federals, hopefully these bridgestones will be better!  I run 32 psi all round on mine and had even tyre wear.

nice one cheeeers  

I'm putting 165/50-15s on my 7x15 Toplines in a month or so. Seen some on a 6j rim and think they'll be fine.
I have stretched 225/40-18s over a 10j on my daily so it'll be reet

ive read loads of mixed reports about1 165/50 on 15x7 and dam poor performance.  They do look pretty sa-weet though lol
