Hi Barls,

Im getting my Ratrod bug back on the road. Standard tyre OEM was 165 R15...145's look awesom. I guess i could settle for 155 or 165....

195's are pretty wide on a R14

I have the Coker Tyre catalogue and Michelin make a 145 MX but here in Perth no one wants to help?!

Mate if you talking about buting them on the wheels you got from me you are best puting only 185/60x14 on or bigger. Maybe 175/60x14 at smallest and I no bridgstone make 'em Potenza GIII and Ithink yokohama do as well. remember its a 6" wheel

But to give you an idea a 175/60x14 is only about 555mm or 22" tall

Chris- They are'nt going on the rims I got off you...they are for stockies 4R14....Ican just imagine a tyre shop trying to stretch a 145 on to a 7" wheel tho! hehehehe....
