I have a set of 15" mk4 golf wheels 5x100 6jx15h2 et38 . Just wondering what 15" size of tyre will fit best 15/??/?? Any help would be great (ps to fit a mk1 vrs ) thanks

Forgot to add these are winter Tyers I'm looking for . Thanks

Assuming you mean a mk1 Fabia vRS.

 

Standards are 205/45/16. 195/55/15 are only 0.85% different and are as close as possible.

 

195/55/15 winters are significantly cheaper than 205/45/16s too

Yeah mk1 Fabia vrs lol

195/50/15 will they be ok ?? They seem a little cheaper

195/50/15 are 2.54% smaller than standard.

 

Recommended maximum difference is 2.5%

 

You can compare the sizes using a tool like below:

Look inside the fuel filler flap - the other size mentioned is 185/55R15.

 

I'd wondered whether this was to allow space for snow chains, because otherwise 195/55R15 is closer to the standard wheels & tyres, but now I'm beginning to think that the speedo on the vRS is calibrated the same as other models in the range, in which case 185/55R15 makes a lot more sense, (since it is less of a stretch from 185/60R14).

Good website, just input your oem wheel and dimensions them the new ones.

Diameter shouldn't be out more than 2.5% according to a good few insurers.

Think im going to go for the 185/55/15 Nankang snow sv-2 . Cheers guys

What do you think to the re-design?

Assuming you are aware that the load index requirement for Mk vRS is 83 -- the standard load index in this size is 82 so you need to be looking for XL tyres.

Yeah they are xl

Huh, that must have happened recently, I was looking on there, can't have been more than a week ago and it was on the old version.

 

Looks nice, will have a tinker and see if it still works.

Yeah it will still work as it is the same code, just completely restyled for a new owner.
