Tyre shop can't stretch a 195 55 over a 8.5 rim
Hey guys I have a pair of 14*8.5 inch rags mesh wheels, I wanted to go for a bit of a stretch look and the tyre shoo in question suggested a 195 size tyre.
After 2 days and a lot of work apparently they had already burst one tyre and destroy the bead trying to get one on, the question is are they retarded or is that just to smaller. Size tyre for the wheels ?

Go somewhere that has the right tools for the job, ie. Beadblaster.
you should easy be able to fit 185's on those rims, let alone 195.
They tried man with the beads blasted apparently ! They popped the bead on the 185's they tried!
Can anyone suggest a tyre shop in melbourne that could do this ?
Did they make you pay for the tyre?
2days to try to put a tire on???
AE86 THE BEST
No i didn't pay for it but really they might be wide but i did not think this would be hard! They said the outer of the rim might be 14.5 inches wide ? That why they were having trouble but i think they're just shit
what tyre is a 195/55 r14?
i only know of semis in that size and they dont stretch that well..
i don't get how they could break the bead trying to pop it on??? unless the wheels you have are 3 peice and someone has used the outters from two sets to make a rim, so you don't have the stepped area you need to fit the tyre, in this case you have to pull the rim apart and put it togeather around the rim, then pump it up
pics needed of rims to confirm
K will uploads pics asap i think that might be the case they said something about doing that, pulling it apart but then they're like "we've spend enough time on these wheels" customer service fail !
