[T3] Tire Sizing Questions


Hello all!

After picking up a set of EMPI 8-spokes this weekend (they don't look too
oxidized, Keith...but I'll probably hit 'em with a clear coat) I'l now
looking at tires.  I'll probably just get the stock 165 R15's, but I'm
wondering what this number means...

Obviously 15 is the diameter of the wheel, right?
And 165 is the width of the tread?

What specifies the height of the sidewall?

Anyway, when I have the current tires removed from these wheels I'm going
to compare the width of the rim to a standard rim...if, for some reason
these rims aren't the stock width, will I have a problem using 165 R15's?

Many thanks in advance!
