tyre size advice please

Post by blatsun »

Can someone tell me if a 205/50/15 will fit under (rolled) guards on a 1200 with 15x8 wheels with 0 offset or do I need to go to 185/5015
cheers

Ive had issues with tyre rub at over 185. But I don't have a clue what offset I got.
1200's don't suppor big tyres easily.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............
