does anyone know any good suppliers of tyres? im currently running 145/70! r13s but i want to get the cinqy lowered so i want low profiles aswell.... does anyone know who supply 145/60(or lower) r13s? if not will 155/60(or lower) fit?? any help needed... thanks

175/50/r13's are a good choice. Many people rate this size

Are you running the standard steel rims?

175/50s are great... but 165/55 will do!

people have had 195's on in the past

sie think chaos meant the 899 steelies

Aye standard steels. That's what turbocinqy would be running if they have 145/70s on at the mo.........

ooops, sorry

ok im now reallly confused, im runnin non standard alloys, always see them on puntos in my area, and some cinqs on ebay, they these 1s? (pic), if i put 155s/165s wont that mean they wont go on because they 2 wide?? sorry i actualy dont know anything about tyres!

What width are the wheels? They would be pretty narrow IMO for aftermarket alloys if they're taking 145 section tyres. Take a wheel off and have a look on the inside. The width should be stamped on the rim.

Punto Abarth rims, other thread on them here

Is there spacers present? Punto owners would tell you the correct tyre for the rim and the Punto then just take a shade of the sidewall heith and it should be fine.

Limited Edition Snow Cinq there too!

no there are no spacers? what does 5.5 x 13 mean? im guessing 13 is the inches lol but what is the 5.5? btw thats the size on the link

5.5 will be the width

so how will that affect the size of tyre i will get?

means you can get anytung upto 175 on them.. gotfor the 175/50s expencive but look great and handle even better ( they are low profile). of for the cheaper option get 165/55 which are what the cinq sporting uses as standard. but i think its better to spend that extra £10-£15 per wheel to get the 175/50s

If they are from a Punto then it means they are Punto offset and not Cinq offset, Mase can tell you the details of them and the solution.

Liam

with them only being 5.5 13s, they should go on ok without spacers anyway even if they are punto offset. but idealy you might wanna use 5mm spacers.
