Low profiles on 15's

[RICH-I-AM]

Right, i tried my 15's on the other day with 186/65/15 rear and 175/55/15 rear.
I liked the look of the rear but not the front. Think my Bus isnt low enough at the front as there is huge gappage between the top of the tyre and the arch. Im pretty happy with the ride height on my bus so will be going 185/65/15 front and rear. Cheers for the imput all.

good thread, there are so many tyre threads, but this one shows what people actually use.

Faux love the stance of your bus, how much is iy lowered by? and how? i too have the "which tyre size for my 15" radars when lowered" question going roind in my head!!

why is it that when i put 185 tyre's on my rear amarican eagle 5's that the rear arch touched the tyre & the van was sat on the tyre.
i've got 175/55/15 front & 175/65/15 rear's
you all seem to be fine with 185 or 195 tyre's on rear

offset mate (where the central line of the rim is in comparison to the hub) your rims stick out more than say a steely. some after market rims have a shocking offset. nice for a full arch lok at the rear sadly you loose any tuck you may gain from a beam at the front
