Area Representative Richard Price Posted March 8, 2013 Area Representative Share Posted March 8, 2013 Chris, When running in class 2, I used 195/45 - 15's. These were a little more expensive than 195/50's, but the reduced diameter allows a lower ride height whilst maintaining reasonable suspension travel. Additionally, the smaller diameter gave slightly lower gearing for better acceleration. Therfore, as the sizes quoted have the following nominal ovrall diameters:- 185/55 - 585mm 195/55 - 595mm 195/50 - 576mm 205/50 - 586mm Then I would choose 195/50's.

Support Team rob spencer Posted March 8, 2013 Support Team Share Posted March 8, 2013 Chris I don't hink its giving too much away to say that there were a few of us on the 195 50s last season. They are a bit bigger than the same "sized" Stunner though, and take a bit of shoe horning under the wings. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaterBram Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 the AD08's on 195/50R15 is almost exactly the same size as the Falkens I was running last year, will have to see if these turn in better.
