195's on 7 inch wheels
I am watching some alloys on eBay that are 7inch wide, the thing is I do not want to buy any new tyres as I have some almost new 888s on my current
wheels which I'm guessing are 6.5.
What will 195s be like on a 7inch rim with busa power? I know this is the smallest size you should go but I wasn't sure if it would be
recommended or not with a performance car? What effects would it have running 195s over the more recommended 205?
Cheers

There on the morrow side for a 7" but should work ok
Wear them out while you get used to the car then buy a set of 205's or run 195 front 205 rear

195 is a bit of a stretch on a 7inch wheel. I thought 205 was minimum recommended width for a 7 inch wheel.

195 50 15?
Toyo recommend 6" but say you can use 5.5-7"

I have 185/60/13 and they fit fine on a 7" rim.

195/50/15 tyres fit great on a 7" rim, they look good and nothing like that picture which has been posted

195 on an 8J it's anywhere near as much as the picture posted. That's what I have currently and it's fine.
