Default Lenso VPD 13x7.5

I was just wondering what is the widest dot tire I can fit on these rims?

225-45-13 or 225-50-13 Hoosier R6/A6 or 235-45-13 Kumho V700. The Hoosiers are actually a decent amount wider than the Kumhos.

It's possible to squeeze even bigger tire on there if it existed...

Just realized that Kumho no longer makes the 235-45-13 V700. Your only choice from them would be the 215-50-13 V710, which is not even in the same solar system width wise vs Hoosiers (i have a set of each stacked side-by-side in my garage).

If you get the Hoosier DO NOT get the A/R3So4. Get the R6. The S04's are very temperamental to temperature. They take FOR-EVER to heat up autocrossing.

There are bonuses to both the Hoosier and the 710. Regardless if the 710 is that much skinnier. Both are great tires.

I'll get up a picture tomorrow of the 225 Hoosier next to the 215 Kumo.

Got them. Suprisingly the Hoosier really isn't all that much wider tread wise. The sidewalls stick way out so it looks way wider but in reality the Hoosier is only about .5" wider in tread.



Hoosier 225 50 13 A3S04


The Kumho 215 50 13
