Stephen and Others; I am the one who chose the 195/65x15 Continentals for my standard 15" x 5 1/2" TVR wheels. I chose the size because it approximates the 165x15 size, in a more readily available mo

<< Any recommendations for a particular tire for performance use? In a 205/60-15, the Yokohoma AVS Intermediate looks good, or the Michelin Pilot SXGT, or Pirelli 6000. In a 205/65-15, the choices ar

I'm NOT an expert on these matters by any means, but I'd suggest that while what you say is probably correct in and of itself, its not all there is to it. Wider tires appear to me to be more sensitiv
