Narrow or stock body fenders Car , 4 bolt real fuchs or 2liter wheels
Has 195/60r 15 on it now Netto touring front (still tread enough but are like 8 years old ) Continental touring rear ( tread is pretty low also old but in good shape) I beginning to realize a tire failure on these cars could be especially dangerous Cause lets face it a 914 gets driven harder then A toyota I dont want to roll the fender lips and the clearance with current tire size is already tight Budget pretty wide open since i want something reliable or high quality ? |

problem with online order is that you still have to get them mounted and balanced. I’ve found that if I find a tire on tire rack, go to a shop and ask for their best price, their out the door price (tax, mount balance, warranty) is usually close (sometimes less) than tire racks price for tires and shipping.
I just went to Tucker Tire out here in OC (after hearing so many recos), Out the door they were over 100 less that TR price before shipping. I think I’m a customer for life now... |
