I just got a great deal on Kumho Ecsta AST 195/50×R15 tires that I couldn't pass up. Has anyone else used these on their 914? I know the speedo will be way off and the car now is maybe way too low but will they work okay? Need feedback from anyone else that used or uses the same size.
Thanks!!!! |

Speedometer will be off.
I like the look it really lowers the car, great for autocross because it lowers your gearing for short courses. I ended up running 60 series to be in the middle. |
