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. |

My LE came w/ Dunlop SPs so I wanted to put Dunlops back on & used the tire calculator here on the world to make sure my speedo would register correctly. Wound up using Dunlop SP Sport A2 plus in 195/65 x15 on my Mahles. No issues with the fit @ all & according to the calculator virtually the same diameter as my originals.
