Anyone ever used these on their 6? They are the same rolling radius as the standard size.Or is there some simple reason why not? |

rims aren't wide enough for them to work really, the 205 runs a 185 on the same width rim!IIRC the clio williams used a 185 on a 6.5 rim! ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

My Williams 1 had 195's on the original speedlines. Think I will stick to 195's. |

The early '90s Audi 80/90 had 205s on a 6" rim from the factory. That is not to say it is ideal in handling terms though. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

They were 205/60-15 from memory. The factory dampers in those cars were filled with marshmallows so the balloon tyres wouldn't have been much of an issue. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

Try some 185/55/15's instead, my new wheels came with them so I thought I'd leave em on and burn them off, saves my PS3's! LOOS is fantastic now________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |
