In between talking Tire Rack and doing a bunch of searches here, it appears that I am going to have to go to a different tire size.
I am a bit bummed out because I like the stance on the car now, but if it's not an option then I need to suck it up and move forward. Tire Rack suggested 205/60/15 and 215/60/15, but apparently on a Nero fender car that could be an issue. My rear fenders are already rolled, the fronts or not. Not sure if these are real, or more likely, replica Fuchs. This is the "turbo" car and will likely try to run this engine for a while but it's likely to get a 3.2 L at some point and I just assume not have to replace the tires when that happens. Thank you for all of the help and coaching, I was super active on the farm today and hope I didn't drive anyone crazy. Attached thumbnail(s)
