2 real, user-submitted fitments for this exact size. Filter by tyre or rim brand below.

Below are 2 real-world examples of 165/60 R14 tyres stretched onto 6.0J rims, submitted by the community. Tyre stretch is the look created when a 165/60 R14 tyre is fitted to a 6.0J rim (about 152 mm wide) — wider than the tyre's nominal width — pulling the sidewall taut for a flush, stanced fitment. Browse the photos below to see how different tyre and wheel brands look at this combination.

Entirely conventional in its proportions, the 165 sits about 13mm wider than the 6 inch rim's 152mm and bulges the way tyres did for decades. A 60 profile on a 14 is pure classic specification. Air-cooled Beetles and early hatchbacks wore exactly this sort of fitment from new.
