Partial (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hijacked.gif)
I have searched and read many tire threads and something confuses me, not that it's difficult. I have 4 lug Fuchs with 195/60/15. Logically, it seems to go to a 50 series tire, the correct size would be 225/50/15, but no one seems to be running them. Someone enlighten this noob. |

225's don't fit well on a 5.5 rim.
I run 205x60x15 on 5.5 Mahles. |

Closest to stock rolling diameter. As the black car is primarily the backup driver when Miss Mari and I can't car pool together I wanted the top end gas mileage as about half of our commute is at 75 mph or better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Easier on the old type 4 2.0 rather than taching 4500 rpm down the highway. JT |
