Yup, never heard of any tyres designed to be stretched. Probably can use a higher series tyres to stretch because got more sidewall....hahahahahhaha

Not sure what you mean? 175R14 is 80 series aspect ratio. 165/60 is 60 series aspect ratio, so what is your question?

Still don't quite understand your question? 175R14 with 165/60R14 tyres, but your next post is 165/60 tyres on 6.5" rims compared to 6.9". I think your original tyres are on 5" only not 6.5.as per link below if my submission is correct

6.5" should fit 195 size tyres. You change the top figure to 5" and see the difference....
ok let me rephrase my question coz still a bit low on knowledge bout rims, right now standard kelisa rim runs on 165/55R14 & dunno the exact width of rim so calculated & change the 165 to 6.5", wanna do everstreched tyres using GY NCT5 165/60/R14 & fit onto a R14 rims that fits a 175 profile tyre, so rite now need to learn bout rims & get the correct size of the rim that i wanna use. now i know my question is way way of target. so anyone any thread @ links bout rims & how it is being calculated??
To make it easy, just go to this website and put in the tire size and you'll get what would be your possible width for rims.ok let me rephrase my question coz still a bit low on knowledge bout rims, right now standard kelisa rim runs on 165/55R14 & dunno the exact width of rim so calculated & change the 165 to 6.5", wanna do everstreched tyres using GY NCT5 165/60/R14 & fit onto a R14 rims that fits a 175 profile tyre, so rite now need to learn bout rims & get the correct size of the rim that i wanna use. now i know my question is way way of target. so anyone any thread @ links bout rims & how it is being calculated??

Everything in this world has its originally innocent beginning just like CD was once a recording medium for my favorite Canton hits but is now associated with someone's [strike]penis[/strike] name in our country's gutter politics.
So I would like to think that stretched tyre has the same innocent originality and beginning. Some boy, who just had enough money for a wider rim but not enough for a wider tyre, decided to fit in first and stretched his stock tyre on his newly purchased rims on his ride. Someone who was always zealous to make his car look unique but lack of new idea stumbled upon this particular poor guy's stretched rubber and found the design was absolutely out of this world and ahead of its time, so he took the inspiration and later showed it off to his bunch of common freaks. There the wild fire started to spread.
I like stretch tyre too, but I cannot think of its functionality except its look which my mother called it VERY ugly.

True, I agree fully. So don't drive it on public roads cause its not their father's road. Its not funny having these fuckers on the road, blowing a tyre at 80km while casuing catastrophic consequences. They can go bang trees, but other road users are innocent.
well than, as most sifuses r against them, I wanna know is there anything that I do to make my tyres look stretched. Rota rims maybe??
165/55/14 will fit nicely into 4.5x14 rim and right up to max stretching 6x14 rim. Everything still within safety limit. You will risk ripping off the tyre on rim wider than these.
Don't do it.
Not practical.

Bro. 6UE5t, I use 1010 tyre calculator too, but the problem is 165/55R14 don't exist there...

I am not sure what the 175 tyre rim width is so is difficult to assume but should be okay as 165 and 175 do not differ much.
Just a simple calculation since the 1010 calculator do not have your tyre size.
165 is 165mm convert to inch is roughly 6.5", therefore 5" to 6.5" rims can fit them, anything more they start to stretch. Slight stretch is still acceptable but not too much....
Bro, the section width measurement 165 shouldn't be taken as direct rim width figure. As mentioned in Performance Tire and Wheel Relationship by Yokohama, "for 50-series tires and higher, the measuring rim width is 70% of the tire's section width rounded off to the nearest 0.5inch while For tires that have an aspect ratio lower than a 50-series, the measuring rim is 85% of the tire's section design width".Bro. 6UE5t, I use 1010 tyre calculator too, but the problem is 165/55R14 don't exist there...

Therefore, tyre with 165 section width should ideally mount on 4.5" up to 6.0" wide rim:
-- 165mm=6.5inch
-- 70% of 6.5inch = 4.5inch
The same formula is re-quoted by Car Bibles in its An ideal rim-width calculator.
