172 cup turini tyre size?

[maynard]

hey everyone have just purchased a set of turinins from a cup.

they've currently got 195/45/16's on at the moment.

on my other wheels - 172 ff 5 spoke wheels - the tyres on them are 205/45/16

what id like to know is will the 205/45/16's fit on to the turini cup wheels? and will their be any issues such as speedo problems or anything of the like from changing the tyres?

You can run either 195's or 205's without any probs.

The 205 will offer better rim protection, but will be more likely to catch on the arch liner if lowered.

how does the handling differ between 205 and 195s?

so i should be sound with swapping to the 205s then?

what size have you got on yours fletcher?

Handling is better on the 195's in my opinion. Car will feel more nimble and lively.

205's will tramline more.

i think 195s handle better ive got them on my 182 at the mo. they came brand new when i bought some turinis

 

[Turner]

ive had both sizes on mine and defo go for 195s exactly what pepperami says 205s tramlines(follows the contours of the road more) and more nimble on 195s

 

[maynard]

how do they handle better? feel quicker or sharper in the corner or something else?
