Alan:
Small correction - the 457F is a 5" wheel - wouldn't want to lead others
astray! I think that the 185/70 Vreds look about as good as it gets on that
wheel, given that the Michelin 175's are no longer available.

Dan -
For the 5.5" rim you've bought you really should put the 185/70/r15. If you
were running the standard 4.5" rim then you mount the 165s. The tread width
should be about the same as the rim width. if it's too narrow it won't look
right and you could have the bead seperate under heavy use, although this is
admittedly unlikely.
Alan
