Max tyre width...

[ipswichclio]

Ok so i've found camskill. Seen my tyres. But how/what do i look for, to find my max width for tyres on my alloy!?

I don't really understand what you want? the width of your tyre is the '195'/55/r15. The '195' is the width, the '55' is the profile of the tyre wall and the r15 is the alloy size.

That what you need? Or do you need to know what the maximum width you could have on an alloy? Because I thin that depends on make of the tyre etc.

Why not just stick with the width of tyre that's already on your wheels?

Let me make it clearer lol. I think on there, they are 165 50 14. The width, 165. Can i go bigger? Or does each alloy have a specific size :S. I wanted to go 175/185..... Or am i being stupidly dumb

You can go bigger unless you've got a ridiculously skinny wheel...but if you do you should inform your insurance company as it's classed as a modification.
