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.
