I'm looking for a set of 7's and 8's but can't decide if I want to go 15" or 16". I'm leaning toward the 15" as I like a full sidewall, nothing smaller then 55 series and leaning toward 60 series tires. I like a softer ride and the car is strictly a weekender, no autox. TireRack seems to still have a pretty good selection in both sizes and I won't need anything wider than a 225 tire.
However; $$$ is always a consideration. So...which size are cheaper 15x8 or 16x8 in the long run? I've got a pair of 16x7 and would consider selling or trading if it makes sense to go to 15's. Kev |

I acquired a set of 7 & 8 15s. They don't come close to fitting on a 914 without rolling the flares. I guess the Toyo Proxies 215/60 are a tad big.
The Fuchs carry the 911 part number ... were on a 944. Bought them for $25 each with lug nuts (Each your heart out Bruce ... they ain't for sale). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
