What tire size should I go with for a 16x8 +20 ? I like lower profile. I was thinking of 195/40/16 ?

I used to swear by 205/40-16 on a 16x7 rim. worked perfectly. 16x8 is a little wide unless you're stretching. Def too wide for a 195/40 unless you don't actually USE the car much on the road... :grin:

195/40 is a thin tire and you will feel everything! I also get scared with how stiff my suspension is that I would dent a wheel. 205/40 I love and have run those daily on my last two wheel setups in both 17s and 16s

Thanks! I just looked me up nd they look pretty good but the lip on the xxr's isn't too big, you think that'll still look good? They're the 531's
