Well going of my tyre size for my 8x14 (195 45 14) which is just a subtle strech id imagine 165/170 for 7j wheels would do it, not entirely sure, hope that helps you

cheers i shall keep the topic open though if ne one wants to add more

I wouldn't go any less than 185

ask alex (speedlaw) - I thin khe went to 165s or 175s

on a 7 inch wheel

do a search too

edit - 165's on a 7 inch rim confirmed. very euro

they don't do em, mysteryboy!

195x45x13 are there - that would be fine for your 8 inch rim, but really you want to hit 185 or lower

keep asking !
