225/50/15"

 

or

 

225/45/16"

Cant make my mind up if to go 15" or 16"....Whats best 15 or 16 ?

 

what do you reckon???

[Mr Sam]

smaller accelerate faster

[Morley]

15" tyres are generally cheaper

I am having a similar problem with my Mk1 Capri! I would love to try 16" or even 17" (dare to be different!) rims,but finding affordable ones is proving a little difficult!

I have 225/50/15's on the back and 205/50/15's on the front of my Capri MK3. They are on 7" wide Comp ML's and I would say the 225's look a bit tall and wide for the wheel. The 205/50's look a lot nicer on the wheel if you know what I mean! A 225 needs an 8" really.

Hello, have you had a look at Image Wheels

Thanks

the thing you have to remember guys is that you can go on wheel size by looking at tyre size, on say a 6 inch wheel you can get a range of widths so that isn't an issue at the moment.

 

Id say 6x15's or maybe 7x15's mate. good nice sized wheel.
