Btw, the Uniroyal rain experts stuck like sh*t to a blanket! .. unfortunately the blanket was on the back seat of my car. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenD Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 can you get rain experts in 13 inch to suit a 7 inch rim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've put some 185 /70s on 7" rims and tbh, I wouldn't recommend it.. they look a bit too stretched. 6" looks OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Ha! I think you can ignore any of the manufacturer ratings TBH, they are pretty much made up. I certainly didn't when choosing mine (same with the Contis that came before). Any tyre that has lots of tread and is designed to work from cold, rather than having no grooves and needing 60+ degrees to work, is going to be much better on a wet track in a light car I think! When my current tyres are worn out I think I'll give those Nankangs a try as I also have some 7" rims to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
