Best tyre size choice

Post by helloimjammie »

Looking at getting some 17"x7.5j wheels for the polo

Just wondering what size tyre would fit best, don't want overly stretched and I don't want balloon tyres either haha

Thanks guys

215/40/17 would be my suggestion :D

also the amount of stretch differs from brand to brand, even though its the same size tyre!! :roll:

Okay mate thanks for the reply! :) that's what the suggestion was on rim style but didn't want them to be balloon ish ha

Really that is strange? I was going to get nankang ns-2s?

nankangs stretch good, that tyre size is fine for a 7.5j :D if your trying to go for the stretch look you need a wider wheel, lowish et of about 30 and decent lows!!

Lowering about 50mm and not going for a stretch look tbh just don't want chunky ass tyres that's all
