Why would u wanna run a higher profile than stock ... not to mention that your overall rolling diameter is increased as well ...

it will fit, u can even put 195/80 (<- if tat exists?) on it if u like, but the tyre sidewalls will b too thick, speedo will b way off, wats more, u might have to raise ur car up so tat it clears the guards and chasis.

195/65 is not very ideal for an EK.


check out this site for correct tyre size.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
should be 195/55/r15(stock), or 195/50(not really sure if this meets the weight rating for an ek though), and 205/50 will also be good(might scrub though if the car is too low)

Exactly right!
Still expect to pay about 400 all up tho, fitted and balanced.

Fark dont go cheap on tyres, they are an important part of the car, considering its the bit that makes the contact to the road especially at high speed travelling and braking.

Do it right ffs.

People spend so much on engine and sussy mods but when it comes to tyres they farkign go tight ass over it .

going over 205/55/15 will rub. I think 195/65/15 will rub if you

195/55/15 is as per manual, 205/50/15 is slightly smaller than standard but still fine 205/55/15 is slightly over

Just gotta rem the speedo is tuned the a certain sized tyre and going over or below will change your speedo
