Hi all does anyone have a reasonable close up picture of a 185/60 r13 tyre on a 6" wide wheel
and a 205/60 r13 tyre on a 6" wide wheel

just want to roughly see how it looks.

cheers Tilly

205/60 r 13 seem to remember that being a standard size on the old 3.0s Capri on a 6 inch rim

My 185-60-13 R888 on a 6" look great, straight sidewall
The 205-60-13 look a bit squished, sidewall narrow at the rim bends out at the tread
I am trying to find a 6 1/2" Minilite or a 7" with ET25 to 38

The car is running 185/60 fronts on 6" and 205/60 rears on 7" I found the 205's on 6" a little too bulbous, whilst it is nice to have a little sidewall deflection I felt they moved around a little too much.

the 185's on 6" do look good

Here for comparison purposes are 185-60/13 on a 7" rim.

Toyo R888

They specify rim width range. Not the difference in the width of the tyres

This is what you need to be cool innit.

Nice fit innit? [/img]

This is my car, admitly just before I bought it, with 205's rear and 185's front.

I now run 185's all round on the road tyres, mainly for cost, but still have a set that are 205 rear. Speaking to (i think) matt procomp he said people where finding 205's on the rear slightly fast even on 6inch than a 185 but there wasnt much in it.
