[6pack] TR6 tire size

[COLIN THOM]

Hi Everybody, 

This has likely been covered a zillion times but I can't pull up a recent post about it. What are people running for tire size on a stock TR6? I have 205/70/15 and they're kissing the inside of the fender at the 12 o'clock position, when I drive. I know this because a month or so ago I put a little patch of duct tape up in there, and it's showing evidence of being hit by the tires. And, there's a faint but discernible line on the outside shoulder of the tire which I'm guessing is the contact point. I have no idea for how long this has been happening so I don't know if they've been the wrong size for a very long time, or if my suspension has sagged. I suspect the suspension has sagged a bit, but that's a much larger (more expensive) problem then I wish to contemplate. If the overall reaction from all of you is that my tires are much too big, then that's a pretty easy fix, though changing them to avoid a necessary suspension rebuild would be stupid. Thanks to all.
