Hi guys,

Is this ok or should it be a 6.5" rim?

Also, any pics preferably of 205-50-15 on 5.5 rim?

Thanks

i reckon they are 2 big for 5.5 i think the smallest for a 205 would be 6.5

185 or 195 are good sizes for 5.5

205 is perfect for 7"

I had 205 50 on some 15x6" and they look ok but I think 5.5 would just be too small. It's illegal anyway, they could pick on you if they wanted too

Mate

205mm = 8 inches , won't suit a 5.5 width rim
You can use it on a x 6 inch rim , likely for drag racing only tho.

Remember you need to consider sidewall measurent too
