The Great Tire Debate
Have some 15X5.5 fuchs for my 72 911T and need suggestions on size, brand and where to buy. Currently the have dry-rotted Bridgestone Potenza's on them that are 195/65R15, seems to be a good selection in that size. The spare is a Dunlop SP57 185/70VR15 (made in Gernmany, I think it is original), but have not found any in this size. Any help would be appreciated!

Look at Vredestein 185/70/15 if you're after the classic look with adequate performance at a reasonable price.
