that's right, after chatting with the tire guys at the 25 Hour at Thill about the A048's on Sat night, they gave me a pair of 225/50/15's that had been on a car for two hours.

They look great, but can I make them fit? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

Trekkor,
I used to run 225s on 7 inch Fuchs on the rear of my 914-6 with stock (massaged)
fenders. I think you steelies may not have deep enough back spacing to make it fit.
I found with the Yoko A032Rs I ran, the 225s were not much wider than the 205s

Good luck with the fender massage! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

A German car with Japanese tires- I would drive too near any VFW hall (Veterans of Foreign Wars).

I saw that as soon as I submitted the new thread.
Sounds kinda gross, huh? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

I was too lazy to copy the text, delete the thread and repost with the typo fixed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Wanted to see if anyone would comment as well... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)
