I need to replace my 15-20 year old 914 tires & looking for suggestions.
My 1974 914 tires has only about 1K+ - miles on them and in perfect condition, but needs replacement for safety.
My tires are currently all-season 205x60xR15 with no fender clearance issues front or rear. I don't do track events, just local summer cruising to cars/coffee & PCA activities with our 914 locals.
Need suggestions for summer only tires since it's a garage queen.
I like the following size based on manufacture availability for 914's.
205x55x15 looks good?
205x60x15 does not look available?
195x60x15 looks good on 914 factory recommendations.
I know it's a difficult choice on this forum & looking for expert 914 suggestions.
Tom in Michigan ready to purchase.
