There would be a slight stretch but it also depends on which tyres you are using as some tyres have alot thicker sidewalls this can make a difference!

please dont buy the a539's new

lol second that........

[tinyepson]

i no they aint teh best it just they the only ones they offer other the performance budget on rimstyle. and the yoky will prob give a better stretch

they shit tyres i will admit

[pjm300]

why get them then? theyre the only thing in contact with the road and you're getting shit ones?

[pjm300]

and in answer to your original question, you wont get any stretch with 195's on 6.5J's

Agreed it would be a better stretch if you used some 185's and go for something like Falkens they are a decent hard wearing tyre!:y:

[pjm300]

mind you, a stretch on a 6.5J tyre would look silly :D

get some 8/9" wide's on there if you want stretch

Agreed on this, need to be at least 8 inch wides i would say to think about stretching. Will look like a bike tyre on 6.5's!

[tinyepson]

so 7.5 or 8 j wud fit fine all round yea on a stretch

[pjm300]

depends on the offset, as to how well they will fit in the arches, and whether they will rub on either side...

have a look on chandler's old thread, he had probably the most extreme stretch ive seen on this site, see what he used :)

[tinyepson]

yer i dunt want as mada stretch as he had on teh back as he said in the mag it was a bit to much of a stretch lol and i found a set of borbet t's .

there wat i was looking at dnt wanna spend to much ya know

[pjm300]

lovely wheels :D

[tinyepson]

wud they be fine as them spacers will be huge alot of extra weight on ma shafts

[pjm300]

simple answer, yes you would need the spacers.

those wheels are et35, saxo is et18, so you'll need a 20ish mm spacer to get them to sit right.
make sure they're hubcentric spacers and you'll be fine.

i personally prefer 15" and under for euro look on a saxo.

[pjm300]
