  • Tires?

    I've searched & read the wheel tire size post, but they don't answer my question exactlly. I just got some 323 13" wheels. They have 175/70-13 tires. I want some tires a little wider & shorter in ht. Also what size is closest to org. size, so speedo is not too far off?

          And: More when they are mounted on car. Gonna start lookin' for a set of 175/60R13's. Can I mix & put 175/70's on back & 175/60's on front or vice versa?

            You can, but the tires with the taller sidewalls shoud have more air in them than the shorter-sidewall tires, to try to equal out the sidewall stiffness. Even then I wouldn't consider it the ideal way to do things.

              Okay, thanks Tom. I'll run these 175/70R-13's until I need new tires. Oh, and I like your Founding Fathers sight.:salute:
