I'm sure this has been asked before, but what are the optimal tyre sizes? I seem to recal 195/50 on a 15" rim at the front but can't recall on the rear? Also, I think a 195/50 R15 tyre is okay on a 7J rim - can anyone confirm? :confused:

Thanks...

195/50 on 7j rim should be ok if your going for a low profile look but not a job I'd want to do with tyre levers, big tub of ky jelly and plenty of elbow grease. :eek: :rolleyes:
