  172
lol, so I can see the differences :banghead:

You're not going to be able to see 4.5mm (that's the arch gap/ride height difference between) on a picture the size of a car or wheel.

Visually the brand of tyre, shape of sidewall etc will make much more difference than the labelled size. For one tyre sizes are generally only within 5-10% of their labelled size. Secondly there's a bigger difference from a new vs worn tyre than 4.5mm LOL.


It just seems a bit of an odd thread that's all.
 
  172 Cup
Probably down to the make of tyre but I preferred the feel of 205/45/16 over 195/45/16 when driving my Cup. Currently I have the Hankook Evo V12's fitted.
