I have some 15x6 cookie cutter wheels and need some autocross tires for a 914-6. Clearance is a concern, particularly on the rear fender. I wanted to try some Hoosier 205/50/15 tires, but without buying new tire(s), I hoped to find a used Hoosier tire to use on this wheel and put it on the car to check the fit. Anyone know where I can find a used Hoosier to try this out?

Thanks for any help with this.

You might try to contact Tim Studdard of GrassRoots Motorsports, he's pretty much into the vintage racing, etc. scene, and may have some tires available. Also, any racetrack will probably have some old tires laying around the tire truck that you might be able to get hold of for sizing.

You're smart to try the size for your actual car, there are differences between cars and even left to right sides on some cars.
