I've always wanted compo ML's on the spider. what is the normal tyre width to fit on an 8" wide rim - as I want to stick 195/60/15 tyres back on.

I would think that a 225 would be the ideal size on an 8, but that the 195s would look rather good!

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

195\45 looks goood, and is TÜV approved too If you get a tire with flat enough sidewall i should think it would look good aswell

on my 16 inch pentas ive got 205s on the front, and the've got a little bit of stretch, and 225s on the back, which have got pretty much vertical side walls.

its a kind of unanamous decision that 175/50's look the best on an 8" wheel, bridgestone potenza or proxes have the best sidewall shape too with the 'right' sort of rim protector.
but these days ive turned to likening a FAT bit of tread, so 225/235's with as low profile as poss FTW
