[QUOTE="Walt, post: 640803, member: 18070"] Thanks [USER=13810]@ozziedog[/USER] I did look back over the previous posts and yours jumped out as being close to what I'm looking for. The main reason was that I was recommended BF Goodrich's if I could find 4 available for a good price; For R15's there weren't any, but for R14's there's some 215's and 205's, which weren't available before but I wasn't sure if they'd fit. With a R15 I've previously had 185's and 195's fit on the rear but with running slot mags I had to use a spacer which pushed the tyre out a bit more closer to the rear wheel arch valance. So maybe there's no issue with the front; From your photo I think the front would be OK. Now just wondering if there would be any issue with rear, i.e. is the 205/70 or 215/70 R14 tyre too wide to fit without catching the top of the rear wheel arch valance? Hope this makes sense? Thanks, Steve (Walt) [/QUOTE]
