i know.. i was referring to the 195 on an 8in wide rim.. that tire is too small for an 8in wide rim and would look ridiculous
 
That doesn't show them from the side. They'll looked super stretched across the rim.

Make sure the offset is correct for that wide of a rim, too.

hmm could there be any down effect besides look? I am going to check them out if I like how they look would it be a good purchase?
 
After a quick search of the forum, using the search feature, it looks like you'll want an offset around et35.

I dont know what the et35 is... basically was looking for a quick answer of whether I should buy them or not... if you want to explain what that is ill be more then happy to be educated :D
 
with an 8" wide rim you'd want to run 205s at the least.. but 215s would be ideal

Thanks I appreciate it now I know why my vx rims look funny cause they have a 215 on them, I dont think the rim is that wide but they just look a little odd ya know? well I have some 215s and 205s but are for a 14 inch rim not 15
