You cant, you have to buy 10 * 6's and stretch them over. Looks good >_<

Unless you want racing slicks, which are available but not road legal

Tyres are measured in mm width wise, and the widest 10" road tyre is a 165/70x10.. available from just about anywhere

PS, when I lived in Norwich I use to get my tyres from the place just behind Norfolk Car Audio on the Dereham Road, but that was 15 years ago... so probably got houses on it now >_<

ive been looking at atv (quad)road legal tyres.they go up255mm wide but im looking at the 205mm wide tyres with a speed rating of 95mph.the legal speed limit is 70mph so should be ok.

my mini is being turned in to a cartoon mini (look wise ).i dont like the stretched look much.
cheers

Bearing in mind tha both Falken and Yokohama tyres are H rated upto 210kph - 130mph.... do you honestly think an N rated tyre is going to be able to withstand the demands of a motor car travelling @ 70 mph...

Don't risk your life and the lives of other road users and use a tyre which is designed for the purpose....

numpty...

why are you calling me names? "numpty"???? all im asking for is some advice.

im just saying with a bit of time searching the web you can find tyres that fit 7 inch wide tyres and yes the goodyear tyres are very safe.totally road legal and a top quality brand.speed rating T 190kph 118 mph.

if they were not e marked and have papers with them to say they have passed all the tests why are they road legal.

not having a go but why are you calling me names.thats not very nice

If you're considering putting quad bike tyres ( or GOLF CART for that matter ) on a mini you need your head looking at.... that's why....

not mini but ive got them on my hot rod.
there fitted with racing slicks and i had flamed groved in the tread (looks well cool)

i also drilled 6mm holes and put bolts in the rear of the disk so they look like split rims and put a centre gold cap in the middle.>_<
