tyre sizes for 15 x 6 superlite


Recommended Posts

Finally getting ready to fitting tyres onto 15 x 6 Superlite (minilite replicas)bolt ons. Changing from wires, have ordered new standard wheel studs and want to know what size will look good filling the wheel arch without fouling. Standard non lowered suspension,come on post some pics.

I have 205x60x15 Dunlop sports on 6x15 Performance superlites fitted to my 4a with stiffer lowered springs,telescopic shock conversion on rear and have had no clearance problems with suspension or guards. Gravel rash to lower paintwork is a penalty of lookin good though. B)

All depends on the offset of course. Personally I wouldn't go for a lower profile than 65 unless you have very smooth roads in your area, and I can't see the need to go any larger than 195 which should also be within tolerance for your speedo.

I have 6X15 superlites on my 4 and I am running 195/65/15 on the front and 205/65/15 Pirelli P7 on the back. The 205 stuck out too much on the front. The good thing about the 205/65 on the rear is that they are pretty much the same circumferance as original tyres so they wont mess with the speedo
