I am running 15" Panasports with 195/ 60 in front and 205/60 in the rear. I
just started to get tire rubbing in the rear taking a corner. Im having my
springs re-arched to take care of that issue. I'm sure my big butt had
something to do with that, also getting some new rubber ,but not sure of
the size yet, but I do like the 15" on the car Happy motoring guys.  Beau
