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?
Regards :mrgreen:

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.

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
