It's time for me to replace the old, cracking Pirellis on my 914. My car has 5.5-inch, four-bolt Fuchs. The current tires are 165/80-15s. I've been told that the Sumitomo HTR A/S P01s are pretty decent. They're offered in 195/60-15, 185/65-15, or 195/65-15 sizes. I think any of them will fit under my narrow-body.

Anyone have any recommendations for tires: brand, model or size? I won't be autocrossing the thing and neither will I drive the car in heavy rain or snow. So a high-performance all-season or even summer tire would work fine.

I just installed Yokohama's 205/65 x 15 on stock Fuchs with stock fenders. They are for some reason a bit closer on the right side, with a bit more room on the left. (?) They look fat on the car and fill the wheel wells perfectly.
