wheels and tyres

[kane30]

hey people i recently purchased a set of 15/7 rota grids for my ek4 and was wondering should i go a 195/50/15 or 195/45/15 not quite sure! any help would be great

I'm pretty sure you will find that 195/45 is not available from most tyre manufactures. stick with 195/50 as ride comfort won't be affected vs steering response feeling good =]

I guess odometer reading is effected depending on Wat size u get.. u can Google for tyre size calculator.

195/45R15 is a hard size to get, but u can get it, but as said, depends on who makes it.

Imo, stick to 195/45R16, as that profile just suits it well, a 50 profile looks to fat, almost like oem.

50 for ride
45 for looks

if your chasing the correct tyre size for the speedo then here are some simple tips

195/50/15 60mph = 100km
195/45/15 62.1mph = 103km 3.509% too fast
205/45/15 60mph = 100km

hope this helps you

Can you show us pic and let us know what you end up getting? I am on the same boat as you atm.

what would be the correct tyre's size for 16s on EK1 ? i'd like the rolling diameter as close as to the standard tyre size.

thanks guys

205/45R16 will be equal to oem size

though its wider, the rolling diameter should be fairly close, cause ive put my standard against my aftermarket rim/tires, pretty even
