low profile tyres on sigma turbo rims?

[77galantv6]

as the topic states i'm in the process of getting some sigma turbo rims
and was thinking about getting some low profile rubber for them.

just wondering what size rubber guys are running etc

currently i think from memory i am running a 195/50 on the pepperpots
and was thinking of changing the profile down to a 40 or even less if possible....

i run 50 - looks perfect ratio i think

on my fronts i ran 195/50 and the rears 225/55

I don't think you can get 40-profile 15's in Australia

no worries, just thought i would ask.

will ask at the tyre place down the road and see what i can get,
doesnt matter about speedo ratio's as mine is electronically adjustable anyway
just looking for a nice stance...

Yokohama S Drive are available in 195/45, that's the only tyre I can find under 50 series.
Very sweet tyre though

yeah, i just went to the local tyre shops,
thats about it for size.

they quoted me $225 per tyre

Don't go for bicycle tyre profile - looks strange, and must ride pretty hard too. (IMO)

I am with CamB
I dont even like the 195/55 I have on the front
The 195/60's I have on the back look heaps better, and suit the rim and overall period look.

I have 195/50's all round at the moment and yeah, I reckon the ride is harsher than it should be. My old siggy had 60 profile and seemed all good.

I used to have Yokies - 205/60/15 all 'round and they looked awesome. Just fitted on the front - oodles of room on the back. Steering was noticeably heavier at parking speeds though.
