    Lowest profile 13" and 14" tyres available?

    ey guys, well since buying an mk1 i've widened my perspective on wheel and tyre options.

    does anyone know the lowest profile 13" or 14" tyres available?

    or even better does anyone know where i can get them?

    cheers.

    I've heard of 45 profiles for 14", but I don't know who makes them Just see them posted up on Vortex.

    Maybe find a Mini forum and ask the guys there? I'd imagine they run small diameter wheels.

    im looking for these too...

    supposedly toyo make 195/45 r14's, in the proxes T1R, but i reckon we'd be doing well to find 'em in australia.

    bah i hate not having euro friendly tyre places....

    maybe i'll just have to go with something square....aaarrrrgh.

    there are no tyre shops that have these in the country, try using the search button guys... this conversation has been talked about 3 million times

    toyo, sumitomo nankang and falken are the tyres to look for...
