Hello everyone. I'm thinking about some deep dish 15" wheels that are 7j wide. Anyone have any idea what size of tyre would be good for a half decent stretch? Cheers in advance

most places should fit them easier to use a cheater sometimes to get them to seal without stress.

165/50/15 bridgestones are the best for stretch.

Buy them from black circles and find someone that can fit them local to you.

My mate fitted 8tyres for a tenner if you lived closer id get him to sort you out

Stretch on a 7J is an epic fail imo!

i think to having stretch for the look is just gay tbh tbf imo lol rofl..

but if you need it (catching on the arches) or need it for another reason then i can see a point in getting skinnier tyres..
