I am currently running 185/70/15s on Mahle wheels.

I recently bought a set of Fuchs wheels with nearly new 205/60/15 tires.

I am planning to have the Fuchs polished for use on my car, but I am not sure which tires I should use.

Can anyone tell me the difference in width between these two tire sizes?

My current 185/70s have very liitle clearance between the sidewall and the rear fenders.


Thanks for the help!

Hi
Yaknow just today I was looking with a friend at my two sets of mags, one 205/50/15 and 195/60/15 the other.
I got to say that the width is almost identical, I was tempted to measure it. The 195s is a really good size for my 74, I hope the the new 205 will work, but I will just get to try them in the spring.
