Tyre sizes

[dlegg]

Greetings all, I have 5.00x5 tyres and rims, I would like to go to 6in on mains. Looking at many confusing Tyre charts still none the wiser if I can get a 6in Tyre that will fit my 5in rims. Has anyone done this?

[Thruster88]

It cannot be done.

Ah bugger thanks. I have seen some 21's on 6in rims and was hoping....

WO,er  ,,there pilgrim .

Tyre, Can be five inch on the rim X 4 "wide , by 200% ratio,  gives an eight inch hight.

I have a pair of car tyres from a millennium ago 13 or 14 rim fit , But taller than 16 inch 255 tyres ,

AND only 4 inch wide .

Very vintage .

So can we get 4" X4.00 X200 . ?

PS 4X4s use over hight tyres ! Something like 15" X 300 . Huge hight advantage, ( 245 width X Three   = 735 mm high)

Lots of cars are popping tyres by hitting potholes. With there Low profile tyres .

And aren,t bushcat tyres ' high profile tyres ' on small or standard rims .
