tire sizes for 6&7 x 16
The PO has upgraded my 912E with 6 & 7 x 16 fuchs and now I am wondering the best size tire combo would be. It has SC flares on the rears so I have the space for these.
The current tire size is 205/55/16 front AND rear - oh well, what can you do? Want to rectify that now with the correct sizing. Your ideas appreciated. Steve |

go with 205 55 16 and 225 50 16. That's what they were stock for those wheels.

be carefull with the 225 50 on your 7 x 16, they will rub on your narrow body.

yes, 205 and 225 are the perfect sizes for 6 and 7" rims
