I ran a 215 something on the rear for a short while. They were squeezed on to the stock 4 lug spyders
Car came with 195's when I got it. Then I switched to 205's which made a huge difference but at one point I needed to switch out the rears and had some goodyear GT's lying around (long time ago can you tell  )
They worked but were taller

So 215 tyres by 15 inch fit at the rear? Do you have a photo ( risking to be f@@@ed off) of the spyders by any chance? |
