I'd go for 185/55 as turbines are only 6.5" wide I think. Loads of manufacturers to choose from I like eagle f1s

I will be tracking it 185/55 vs 195/50 more traction from 50's with slightly harder / thinner wall ? this is where i dont know which size to go for

Not tracked mine on the 185s and prolly won't now as ULF is on 195s.

195s telegraph their limits better IMO but that could allbe down to the 195s I had being F1 GSD3 and the 185s being Michy PE2s.

The 185 so far are much more difficult to read as the wall is softer. 195s wa like hitting a brick wall you knew so easily when you reached the limit. 8)

Toyo's 195/45/15

Flipping awesome mate, 195/45's but Im not sure what they'll be like on 6.5 wide, although my renault phase 1's wheels might be 6.5, not sure at this moment in time.

If you have dodgy fillings in your teeth, don't get 45's!

:shock:
