Hi, im building a MK Indy R1 and have some 15'' team dynamics wheels for it. What is the best tyre for this wheel ?
Cheers.

I have 15" rims going on mine, i am planning on something like 195/50 - 15's

Looked at 205/50 - 15's but a lot more expensive.

Hope this helps, Andy

195/50 R15 will give you the widest choice and best value for money on tyres.

Some miht advocate a narrower front tyre width say 185 or a wider rear width say 205, but keeping all 4 tyres the same width means you can rotate them if you wish to even out front/rear wear.

195/50R15 for reasons above.

As above, 195/50 gives best choice.

195/50-R15" for me too

195 x 55 x 15. Gives you more flex in the tyre sidewall and a higher top speed.
