Hey guys, I'm running stock Pedrinis with 165SR15 tires. The tires are all leaky, and deflate within days of inflating. so new tires are in order. I want to get the biggest, best tires that I can fit in a stock wheel configuration (no fender roll).
I'm thinking about 195/65HR15s. Will these fit? Do you have any better recommendations? I heard 205's will occassionaly not fit, so I don't want to bother with having to return the tires if they don't fit. To my naked eye, the wheels seem to have a slight negative camber. Edit: Oh and by the way, does anyone know what the aspect ratio of the 165SR15 Michelin XZX tires are? So I can calculate speedo accuracy. |

I did that once to a Ped at the tire store. They couldn't stop it from leaking, but would not take the laibility for the hammer use, so I got the 3 lb shop hammer and they turned their back for a few minutes. Stoped the leak, but didn't do much for the balancing.
