235/60/15 Tyres

Hi all, I’m contemplating trying this size tyre on my 15 inch rims,has anyone tried this size, thanks.

Gordon …

I’m running 225/60/16 tires and they just barely fit, A little rub in the front now and then. Of course they’re 16 not 15.

Why not try this tire size calculator …

Thanks Grooveman, looks like a good match, the 235/60s are more readily available,I have a set of white lettering Hercules that might be the go.:+1:

Gordon …

I’d still be a little concerned about the 235’s. Because of the increased width you may have rubbing on the front tires going lock to lock.

Yes, I will check current clearance before forking out the $, I bought the car with 215s on, factory originals are 225 so will see if these are still easily available. thanks.the spare is the original 225 Pirelli.
