Hi All.

As was suggested some time back, I checked out 
powerdog.com/tiresize.cgi.  It is a great way to zero in on the right 
sizes to use.  BTW, if you have ever considered the poss. of going up a 
size, the TSSC sells a nice  14" Minilite rep. for a decent (set) price.  
This would allow use of a 185/60-14, or a 195/55-205/55-14 combo.  If 
there are any of you who have checked out Chris K's story on Bubba, you 
know about the Kaizer wheels he uses.  An email to/from Mr. Bradakis 
revealed that they are available in a 15", direct bolt-on.  He reckons 
the reasonable sum of $165 each.  Hint: a 195/50-205/50-15 setup is a 
perfect match!

Cheers!
