195/60/15 tyres on dc2??

**rom5** · 14-09-2009 09:01 PM

Hey guys

I have a set of 195/60/15 tyres laying around at home with at least 90%, from a cd5.

I was thinking of putting them on my spare 15inch rims and onto the dc2. Would these tyres be ok to drive on since I used to drive on 195/55s, my car is pretty low btw.

I know I should just buy 195/55s tyres but these are my extra set of rims which sometimes I like to put on when bored

Just trying to get some info before buying tyres when I have these laying around.

So if anybody has done this and would like to share pls do....

thx

It will be fine, I was running the same size tyre on stock dc2 rims for quite awhile. Just looks a little fat on the side. How low is pretty low but?

its about 3inchs low, have 17s on it now and tyres are just tucking in.

do u think it will be scraping when I hit a bump or turning?

Only one way to find out, I think I was about that low too, my tyres scrubbed on full lock and it did get slaughtered occasionally on moderate bumps. Nothing serious or unbearable though..
