Yep, should be 6"

Whoa, where do you live? I wouldn't go any narrower than 195/65 on
a 5ktq unless I was looking to kick ass in a winter rally or something.
On a car the weight of a 5ktq, a 205/60 might not even be out of line
depending on the local conditions.

Ok, should of read on. If you don't get that much snow and ice, I
would strongly recomend the Nokian NRW-H. I believe Igor Kessel lives
in your area, and had great success with these on his 200tq.
195/65-15 would work great.
