    Default 13x7's 165/50's or 175/50's?

    G'day, I've got 13x7 widened datsun 1200 ute steelies for my corolla, Currently have 165/70 and 175/70's on them.

    In order to get it to sit low enough for my liking i'll need to go lower profile sidewall.

    Does anyone have photo's etc of either of those tire sizes on a 13x7? Found a few through google on vw vortex forums or something but they're all shite photo's and hard to tell what they'll be like.

    Ye, Any help is appreciated. Cheers!

    175/50 is perfect for a KE10-20. 28mm drop straight up from tyres alone tho



    if you're not that brave 175/60 are plentiful and inexpensive

    That, Is sick. What width wheel is that? I didn't think it'd be that much stretch on a 7" rim

    That actually looks pretty sweet, I'm still thinking that i need a 50 sidewall though, anyone got any photo's etc? (pref 165) even a 55 would give me an indication
