There's a guy on the fb page running quad/trailer tyres that are 185's I think, not that I would want to run tyres not designed for cars...

I dont think you can get tyres for 10x7 either that are road legal and I think 165 is up to 6 inches wide any more and its considered dangerous, Yeah I love the stretch look but having one blow out at 70 wouldnt look so cool!

They are using 165's stretched to fit, the tyre manufacturers say 6 inches is the widest they recomend for a 165 tyre

they just hope they don't get caught at a VOSA road side inspection, don't tell their insurance company's and swap their wheels come MOT time
