Do 195/50/15 tires look "right" on these cars, or is the fender well gap too much? |

I currently run 195/60/15, but it seems like there is more options if you go to 195/50 15. These Hankook R-S2 tires look pretty cool. Anyon got some pics, mounted?

I've been rollin 195/50s for over a year - they are a great alternative to having a low ratio 901 built! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
My 914 is low enough that they look OK to me. I mostly AX my 914 now so they are sweet. I should go to a bigger contact patch size, but budget is limited. I drive 3.5-4K rpms on the freeway to stay with the flow. 85-95mph gets pretty high and loud on the RPMS. For street and mild racing, I like the looks of the 195/60s...no worries about fitment with 195 vs 205. |
