<x-charset iso-8859-1>>Help! I'm trying to replace the tires on my little wagon. Right now shes wearing 185 60 15 may-pops on the front, and 165r15s min the back. > 165R15 is the original radial tire size and probably the best choice. Any tire size that results in a different tire height in the front will result in an incorrect speedo reading. I think anything bigger would rub too? My 165s rub as is at full steering wheel lock. I have seen people use up to 185/65/15s in the rear but it was a tight fit on a car with no sagging. >The fronts have to go now, next to no tread, and wobble quite a bit @ about 47+. > My '63 Notch did this at 60+ until I drove at 65 mph for 30 minutes or so and both rear tires "exploded" off the rim within 2 miles of each other.
