Rick-
When I bought my B the P.O. had some Cooper tires in the 205/50x14 size
mounted on the Rostyles. IMHO, they looked too big for the car, and the
steering was heavy, with very pronounced bump steer. I replaced them with
my current 185/70's. I will say, however, that there was no interference
with the tire on my RBB. A CBB may be different.

Chris Delling
