hi everyone

i (think) my original 6 came with 15" rims.
And according to my research; the tire size is whats equivalent to today's 165/80-15.

I m in search for some replacement tires and my objective is to :
1. retain the original look / avoid the low profile 50's or 55's
2. perhaps get something just a tad wider (195)?

Anyone have any recommendation?
Thanks in advance.

Classic Dog Bones, had several 914s with these tires, including my -6 that still sports a set.

They have a brick and motor in Springfield, who knew, thats a rocks toss from my place.

Pete Stout (now editor of Panorama) bought a set of Vredestien tires in the original size. He liked them. Coker Tire also carries a lot of new tires in "vintage" sizes.

I've been running 195/60-15, 195/65-15, and (now) 205/60-15 for a number of years. I like the wider tires giving me more grip... They do not look right, though.
