<div>Todd,</div><div>Back in the day I could never get the 9.15's under the rear fenders. I ran 5.00x8.30x15 on my car. I ran the "W" part number which was not cataloged and you had to order them specifically (they were about 1/2" wider - hence the W suffix). Do not know if the 9.15's were available as a W tire so you may need to compare yours to others to determine any actual sizing.</div><div>Anyway, I just compared a 5.00x8.30x15W to Yokohamas and Hoosiers. The Goodyear was almost as large as a Yoko A008 or Yoko Ao48's. Probably just a bit shorter than either of the 205x60x15 Yokos. The Hoosier Speedsters are a smidge smaller and are about a perfect match for my 5.00x8.30x15W tires. </div><div>Your Goodyear's are a bit bit larger than mine so the Yokohama Advan AO52's 205x60x15's would be about a perfect match.</div><div><br></div><div>Other tires may be slightly different but the comparable size would be 205x60x15. If you want to go to a 50 series tire, will have to check actual measurements...can't help you with those.</div><div><br></div><div>I'm tired...</div><div>Nick of Nor Cal</div><div><br></div>
