Right Tire Size Michelin TB15
I have an '88 narrow body that I'm restoring and I bought new wheels that are 7x15 for the front and 8x15 for the back.
What is the right Michelins TB15 tire size that I can have without any rubbing? A lot of threads and comments about them, but I still couldn't figure out the right size that I need.... Thanks. R.

My 88 has Pirelli
P 195/65R 15 front P 215/ 60R 15 rear These are listed as the correct & original tire size. However I don't think they are available any longer. I am not sure if Michelin produces something comparable. You may want to check with Tire Rack.com |

Here's a link to Michelin tb15 sizes -- TB15 | Michelin Classic
DOesn't look like they are a match for your needs and it's my understanding that "good" tires for 15" wheels are becoming QUITE scarce. There's a much better selection of tires available in 16 inch tire sizes that fit 16x7 front and 16x8 rear wheels (205/55-16 and 225/50-16) |
