Welcome Matt!
Here is the size you will want if you wish to keep the
stock looking size. (which is what I wanted as well)
215/70-15
(I THINK this is the size I got.)
well, it is stated to be correct on the info pages listed below.
For some great info, read this page:
http://www.vtr.org/maintain/index.html
Specifically for tires:
http://www.vtr.org/maintain/tires-TR6.html
I had pirelli's on my car at one point, but they were
not the correct size. (It was calculated incorrectly by an idiot
at a local tire shop.) So once I found out what the size
SHOULD be to match closely, I sold the Pirelli's and bought
Michelin. I LOVED the Pirelli's P4000. They stuck to the road
better than the Michelin's.
both look awesome as long as they are black walls!
my two cents.
cheers,
James
