    stretched tyres

    ive got a set of 16 inch wheels and the tyres currently on them are 205/45/16.

    if i wanted a set of tyres stretched on would 195/45/16 be okay?

    had 195 or 185 on a 9j wheel...was 9j or 8.5, wasnt overly extreme but was pretty stretched...that should give you abit of an idea

    This is 195/45/16 on a 7J wheel. Hardly euro look.
    It all depends on the wheel size to get the stretched look. I have 205/50/15 on Astra GSi wheels which are 6J and the tyres are wider than the wheel.

    195's wont look strecthed at all if there standard vaux wheels, or vaux fitment.. they'd need to be a min of 8 1/2 inches wide for 195's to look stretched on them

    if you have a girlfriend or wife dont let them drive it. my wife obliterated the front wheel, chunked the rim proper. 17 inch saab offset with 205s meant to take 235's
