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.

Sorry to hijack your thread ID 19732.0.

I'm also looking for a tire for street driving only like 19732.0 mentioned above. Can also please share a pictures of those tires from the rear to see how much wide 205 or maybe 195 is. since I'm also checking new tires for my narrow body and going to use 2.0 Fuchs wheels. Currently I have riviera wheels with 185x65x15 and I did pull rear driver side fender about 1/4 inch. Thanks and God bless!
