Tyres for 14" Sunrayrai's

Post by Gazza01 » Sun Jan 18, 2015 8:39 am

[ATTACH]4539[/ATTACH][quote][URL= I bought a set of 14 Inch speedie/Sunraysia rims and tyres complete. The tyres are 185R x 14 and if I put them on my Brumby I know from the previous owner that the front tyres will hit the back of the tyre well when I make a turn. Have any of u Guys out there know what size tyre I should put of the 14 inch rims so they will clear the back of the front tyre well on turning. The 185R and a BIG tyre when you look at it.

Its the 105 profile that is the problem ( I think)

Old school tyres didn't use the profile because they were all one size. These were all 75 profile, so these tyres would be 185/75R14 and will be a tad high but would be fine if you used rims with the correct offset.
