[Vwdiesel] TDI tires

[Brian and Ruth Decker]

Hi Tad. That 155 65 15 would work great if you can find narrow rims and that
size tires. A 185 55 15 is almost the same size also. My 1981 Rabbit pickup
with a fresh rebuilt 1.6 diesel N/A pulls a Tall FF tranny with 185 65 15
tires well enough but I'm about to replace my fronts with 185 60 15. I have
7 inch wide rims so I can't use those old Beetle tires.

Not as low-pro as you might guess.

Per this calculator:

155/65R15 would be just a hair larger. :)
