I have 215 on an 8" rim, 225 won't look stretched on 7.5. | |

quote:205/40/17 is 4.6% bigger than standard so you're probably nearly there. You'll not get something small enough to give you the same reading as your factory tyres did though. PS I'm assuming factory tyre is 1.4 Sport spec ie 165/65/14 (570mm rr) 165/70/13 are smaller again (561). | |

Closest to factory size gives you a speedo reading which is closest to factory speedo error, so yes, 195/45 is a good choice (2.4% smaller) as is 195/50 (1.1% bigger) | |

so 195/45/15 would read almost accurate | |
