If they are 6j they'll sit exactly the same as mine.

Going to order the 165s at the beginning of next week hopefully. Will there be any hassle at the fitting centre as there is a slight stretch on the tyres ?

Fitting a 165 on a 6j rim will be no problem, i've got 165/55/13 on my classics. and their 7j. They went on easy.

Happydays mate! You think the 165s are the right choice? Im looking to put coilies on and have a nice stance. Nothing too low as its my daily and there are plenty of speed bumps in uni etc.

Excellant! Thanks lads. Il be ordering them Asap, Payday today :D . Is it handy enough to buy the tyres on the net and take them to a garage to get fitted or go all in with the website and have them fitted by their agent near me?

Second option. order them from somewhere like mytyres or blackcircles and they'll give you a all in one package for the tyres, fitting and balancing. You just have to select one of their competing garages nearby.
