First time post......

I like the look of this wheel / tire setup on the stock narrow body.....any idea what size combination this is. 15x7 Fuchs with 195/60/15 is my guess....any thoughts?

My guess would be 205-60-15. The wheel wells look pretty full.

These are the exact same tires, shallower rims are 15x7 205-55's, deeper ones are 15x8 with 225's. These were fake, but I wish I held on to them, best fake set I've seen...

Looks like 15x7s all around with 205/55R15 Yokohama ES100s. Had those tires, in that size. Never liked them. Square edges weren't real progressive at/near the limit, and not great in the rain (felt greasy on my 914 and my WRX).

I suppose they could be 225/50R15s or maybe they are 205/60R15s. Whatever they are, I suspect the rear fenders were worked a bit to make everything fit.

Looks like 15x7 wheels with 205 tires and rolled rear fender lips.

Is there a way to make a thread on the board where everyone can put a pic(s) of their car with wheel, tire, offset information listed in the same format? That way somebody could search the thread

For instance:

4-lug ARE Lemans 15x5.5 wheels, ET20 offset, 195/65r15 Kumho Ecsta Platinum tires, rolled rear fenders, -2 camber

??

Was thinking that may pair down the "what size tire fits" question

Just pick up this after market fuchs wheel 7x15 with 205x60x15 tires. It was removed from a 914-6 conversion with 1973 body. The owner did rolled his rear fender.

This car already has a 7x16 wheels on it with 205x55x16 tires.
