Looking for 205/60 x 15 tires for 911. What are best choices
I have 15x6 and 15x7 wheels on my 69 911. I currently run 195/65 and 205/60, but could very likely use 205/60 all around. What are the best choices. I cannot seem to find much. I do not want all season tires.
thanks for any suggestions. |

There is a comprehensive write up on tire choices for early 911s in 911sregisty.com by Arne. Full of insightful and useful information. Worth finding and checking it out.

 they're a little shorter, but i've been running 205/55-15 yokohama sdrives (now the advan fleva V701, which i run on the back now) all around on 6 & 7's and i've been quite happy with the fit. i little quicker acceleration with the shorter tire, you lose a bit on the top end. i tried 50's and they were just too short for me to drive on every day...
