Wheels of 15-16 inch for a Golf 7
I'm looking for a set of wheels. I have a 1.8 TSI which will also have software, probably stage 2. For reasons of bad roads and comfort I am looking at 15" diameter wheels.
The question is 6 or 6.5 width ? And what tyre size to go with them ? 195/65/R15 or 205/60/R15 ? Does the 205 tyre on a 6.5" wheel perform better in any significant way than the 195 on a 6" wheel ? Should I even consider a 205 tyre, or will the 195 be just as good and cheaper ?
I want the car to be fast in a straight line and also very comfortable on bad roads. Handling should be sharp and relatively easy. Performance in corners is welcome but less important. Any advice is appreciated.
