IIRC your stock rear rim is 3", for which the widest recommended width of tyre is a 150/80. Once tyres go lower profile they need much wider rims, a 180/70 calls for a 5" rim, according to Avon (a great choice!). Check rolling diameters, as Avon make 180/70, 180/65 and 180/60, to get the most suitable.

 

thanks bro

 

thanks
just to clarify /70 vs /65 the lower the number the lower profile?

cheers

 

look at this video
it appears to me a 180 on the stock wheel, is that possible?
unsafe?

 

180s are so 2013. Everyone is going with 200s this year. May as well get with the times, just go 200 now otherwise that 180 will be too thin when you park next to a bunch of 200s....

Just sayin, domt wanna look silly now do ya?

 

you guys got me wanting a 200

 

just because it fits, doesn't make it safe.

Halfway through the video the wheel is not a stock wheel, along with no belt or disk fitted

 

thats what i thought too...that rim is almost as wide as the tire!

 

That is no way a stock rim (3 spoke wheel)

 

the wheel latter in the video is definetely not stock, but the one in the beggining of the video which to me it appears a 180 is stock, i guess this guy fit the tire in the stock and latter switch to a wider wheel
