Help on Tyre selection - asap - PLEASE!

[Okami]

Hello,

I have original 14 inch rims with tire size : 195/60/R14
I want to get my 13 inchs rims fitted...
13 x 7.0J ET-7

Wat tires/tire size should I use to keep it close to the OEM distance...
165? to pull the tires and make the rims pop out a bit more?
165/60/13? I have noooo clue whatsoever about tires and all that... Sorry.

Please help! Thanks!!!

This is the problem now

165/75R13 would match OEM size, but it's probably easier to check what sizes are available at all in 13" and then plug the numbers in here http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible_pg4.html does all the math for you

Thanks!

I just came across this link also http://www.buggyboys.be/nl/tech_tellerafwijking.htm

And found out if I would choose this tire-size : 175/70/13
The height would then be 1 cm smaller and -5cm with the wheel running

So it would almost be the same with OEM but the wheels would spin faster vs the OEM size.

Probably the best selection of tyres in this size.
Plenty of used race tyre bargains available for drifting in 13" too :wink:

Don't lower the front of the car too much in relation to the back.

Thanks... the lowering in front was due to the OEM size wheels... I did not know it was going to be THIS AWFULL with the new rims and tyres hahaha
I apologize for the nose-diving-look

That's the default size for the pizzacutter rims.

Agreed. I used 185/60-13 slightly stretched onto that exact same wheel.
