[TR] Tire size question

For what it's worth, I'm running 60 height tires, but I didn't change the ride height on my car, and don't have much gap with the fenders.

This is a Drive Your Triumph Day 2018 photo with my son and his dog down in Santa Cruz.

Dave. They look great.  I only do t like the look of 65 height tires without lowered springs.  Too much wheel well gap iMHO.   They look great with lowered springs.   Your car looks great!!

Here's a photo of my still-in-progress TR3 with newly-installed 15 x 6 VTO wheels and 195/65-R15 Vredesteins. Sorry you "don't like the way 185's or 195's look on a TR" but I am quite happy with this setup...

Hello list:
Considering getting a set of VTO Silverstone 15 x 6 inch wheels for my 67
TR4A.  Car came with wire wheels, but tired of the tubes, cleaning etc.
Always loved the look of silverstones.  Anyone know what size tire came on
the original Silverstone alloys back in the 60s.  185X15?  Looking for the
right "look" profile on the modern tires.  Never liked the look of 185 or
195 65 15 on a TR.  Although, if anyone has a near new set of wires they
want to sell, may be interested, Thanks
