Hey guys,
Wheels and tires are really not my forte. I have a 1991 VW Jetta coupe with 16X7.5 front and 16X8 rear 3 piece Schmidt Modern Line wheels, well they are on their way to me anyhow. My issue is I can not for the life of me determine what size tires to run, I really do not want a crazy stretch but some is ok. What I do want is decent performance. Really the problem I am coming up with is if I do a 215 width tire I can not find anything with a small enough sidewall, I do not want to run a 50 series tire. The best I have found so far is a Yokohama S. Drive in 215/40R16, but is this the optimal choice for me? Any other ideas or options?
