205 Width Tires on 6.5" or 7" Wide Rims

Will 205 width tires look more "bubbly" (i.e. rounded) on 6.5" wide rims? Is it noticeably less rounded on 7" wide rims?

Go with the 7" if you can. The 205 sidewall looks better with the 7" vs. the 6.5" wide rim. IMO

hey klam, for proper fit and proper look, uless you like bubbles, 6.5 inch rims are made for 195 series and 7 inch rims are made for 205 series.....the type of tire you choose will make a difference in how good it looks, (how the sidewall is shaped), but stick to that rule.....
