mk3anni 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 I was wondering the same. Funny thing is my Falkens are stretched yet my new yoko's aren't, and there both 205's. Link to post Share on other sites
MrBen 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 Isn't the rim measured between the tyre mounting surfaces, rather than the edges? So a 7.5 rim will measure a bit more edge to edge - in the same way a 17" rim actually measures 18" across the front. Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 mine are 7.5" like steve says some tyres look more stretched than others... 205 toyos have just the right look on a 7.5" rim imo[ Edited Sat Mar 26 2005, 01:39PM ] Link to post Share on other sites
