I am running 15" TR8 wheels on my Honda powered Spit.  They are Panasport 6"
wide and I have Kumho 205/50-R15 tires which are very close in circumference
to the 70 series 13" tires that were on the car.  That would keep the speedo
very close to accuracy.

I made that change because there is a dwindling supply of 13" performance
tires, since that size is currently only supplied on cheap econo-boxes.

Hey List,
I am about to buy some Japanese tires for the Eight only because
the 185/70/13 size is pretty thin with current offerings.  I would like to
have made in USA or at least Euro brands on the Eight.  I am willing to
alter the size from stock.  Any ideas?
Thanks,
Darrell
