Tire size calculator

Check the size here because if u use size other that the factory. It will also cause ur speedometer to read incorrectly.
Yeah, already hhave taken this issue into consideration when looking for tyres with diff aspect ratio. It's just that I'm not sure it'll fit into my stock rims. I'm trying to see if I can put on some UHP tyres without changing rims.

That'll will incur extra cost since I have to look for new rims. Stock rims are only 195 width and I'm concern with wider rims, might lose that 'punch' during acceleration. But i'll keep that in mind, perhaps in the future.

Just my thoughts.

If you use 195/45R16 in replacement for your 195/50R16 the overall diameter is smaller by 3.26%. Like bro. mcliong mention 205/45R16 is a better fit as overall diameter is smaller by 1.74% only which is closer to original diameter, however how wide are your OEM rims? 205/45 fit 6.5 to 7.5" width, where your 195/50 is 5.5 to 7". If your rims are 6.5" then okay....

I did polish up a Fiesta for a friend and it came with Conti CPC2, yours the same tyres?
But got a hunch the rims are 6", because OEM rims normally not wide.....:smokin:
Yeah, stock 16'' rims. Ah, might as well just wait until my tyres thread wear out, then think about changing rims later.

The CPC2 are not that bad. Comfort performance tyres...

That is why minimum is 6.5" best is 7"

Hmm I changed my 185/70/R13 to a 205/45/R16 will that cause the speedo to read incorrectly?
Good fit, brother. Only 0.31% bigger in diameter....

I thought of changing the 45 tyres to 50 maybe in the future.. the 45s are too bumpy for me..
