Below are 47 real-world examples of 165/45 R15 tyres stretched onto 8.0J rims, submitted by the community.

Browse the photos below to see how different tyre and wheel brands look at this combination.
Thirty-eight millimetres of deficit places a 165/45 hauled across an 8 inch rim near the boundary between heavy and extreme. The short 45 sidewall leaves little margin at the bead. In the wider scene the size belongs to VW and kei-style show builds, at the far edge of what gets run on 15s.
