Posted March 9, 200322 yr comment_29150 Hi all,I have a set of 70's slotmags and stamped on them are these numbers 6.50 x 14 x 0.355 OUT.I am assuming 6.50 is the width of the rim in inches, 14 is the diameter of the rim in inches and I do not know what 0.355 out means?? Anyone know?If a set of 225/60/14 tyres can fit on a rim which is 6 inches wide then whats the maximum tyre width I can go for?? Also bearing in mind that I have the normal 240Z fenders with no extensions.Thanks..

March 9, 200322 yr comment_29157 but dont quote me is the back spacing or offset from center.if you wanted to run 225 60 14 i see you having no problems at all running those tires on those rims Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5038-what-are-the-widest-tyres-for-these-rims/#findComment-29157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 17, 200321 yr comment_30218 Is this for a track car or a daily driver? Either way, look at what the tire MFG specs out for the tire you want. My current setup uses the smallest tire for a certain wheel size, a 195/60 on a 15x7" wheel, that is bead to bead not lip to lip. I am going to step up to 205/50s, but on a street car where you dont care about handling as much a 225 would work fine on a 7" wheel.As for a 6.5" I wouldn't put a 225 on there, but you could.
