tyre profiles

[Presha]

what tyre profile is best for mk3 cupra alloys which im planning to put on my 95 ibiza? theyve got 40 profiles on them at the moment..is this the right profile?

 

[Chrisdaman]

what width and what do you want from them? stretch or just to not look like monster truck tyres?

 

[andyj]

std profile for the 16" wheels on a Mk2/3 is 195/45/16

you can go wider, i.e. 205/40/16 but that depends if you're lowered etc, and if you don't want to go for the stretched look !!

duno mate,got the new yoko's on mine but they're still pretty crap in the wet,pretty decent in the dry though but I'll have to wait a good few months before the roads ever get dry judging by this nice english weather!
