(225 - 50 - 16 on 8" Fuchs) Your biggest problem will be finding the sizes you mentioned in any tire. |

Hey Jeff, I hope all's well! I run 15's as well due to clearance and tires are pretty limited. Like a lot of the early car crowd I've got a set of the Michelin TB-series vintage tires (Coker) which look cool, period correct, but are modern construction tires. I find they are really bouncy compared to true modern tires, but could be a way to go.
Previously since my car was mainly track usage I put used Hoosiers on it if I went on the street but I had switched to non-streetable slicks for track. |
