can i get away with just replacing the two rear tyres with 165/50/15's to aid the scrubbing on the back?
or will i need to replace all four? fronts are currently new anyway (195/45/15 atm)

iirc there is no law about all four tyres matching brand, make or even size. providin their safe and legal (ok the same thing really) you wont get a tellin off
its not advisable thou! i see no prob with it really less rubber at rear, might aid turn-in as it will "slip" easier as thinner tyres are easier to move

yea, was just thinking..
1. are they safe? (i think my wheels are 6 or 6.5x15)
2. would it look shit having just the rear streched?
3. is it gunna help scrubbage? (literaly 1mm inwards would stop it rubbing!)
4. should i just get new wheels..
