People, any ideas on what cat would fit 205/50/16 tyres, assuming std wheels? I know this sounds topsy turvy but I'm thinking of buying rims that are right for me that come with tyres that are slightly undersized for me. I hope to sell the tyres, and to know what they will fit or be suitable for would help.

Any suggestions?

hi.

what u r asking is will 205's fit on a std skyline rim?

im pretty sure they would! but i wouldnt go and smaller in the tyre dept. std rim width of a skyline 16" rim, is 6.5''..

ive seen 225's and 215's on a std rim. i cant see why they cant be stretched to fit. a tyre shop could tell u.

I think that's the standard size tyre for a 32 gtst.

Only problem you'll run into running smaller tyres would be a faster speedo reading. It says you're going 100km/h, but really it's 95km/h for example.

Edit: Didn't see the above post. I think it's 225mm wide standard with a larger profile.

Thanks Adam and Trust33. They come off an 8" R32 GTR rims and the 205s are too narrow for this rim. I've seen 6.5" GTST rims that were fitted with 225/60, and the tyres looked oversized to me. If GTST rims are 6.5" I reckon 205s are OK, but not sure about the profile.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
