[urq] winter tire / rim question ??????

[Martin pajak]

?????????

I have 195/65/15 Nokian on ET45 and no problems ever... pleanty of space...
Are you sure the rims are ET45?
Stock '83 Ur-q is 205/60/15 with ET45.... it does not make sense for 195/65
to rub on the same rim...
Even if the rims width is different it should nto make difference where the
tire center and therefore edges are.

Let us know.

Cheers

What are you guys running for winter rubber size on your UrQs?  I just
got a set of  195/65/15's on ET45 rims and they dont fit (rub the spring
perches).  OE wheel is ET24....  Which combo works?
