smaller tires like 13 and 14 inch are simply going away like the dinosaurs eventually. i bought 5 alum rims for my tr8 in 15x6 with the correct offset (maybe 24cm neg) i had installed on these rims bridgestone 205 50 r15v. these tires cost about $69 each (us) plus shipping. unfortunately i think that all of us will someday have to go this way. this is a 15" rim size tire, 205 cm wide, with an aspect ratio of 50%, width to height. the v means high speed. this means a wide low profile tire at a reasonable price. i was so impressed with the also nice cost of the rims that i bought another 5 rims for my upcoming tr7 project car. without looking up my reciepts, i think the firm that i bought these ten rims from is gb british parts in pompano beach florida usa. you can look them up on the internet. i wish that the tire manufacturing firms still made nice tires for out 13 inch rims, but i have jumped the ship to 15 inch as that is life. sorry for no pictures, i'm buried with projects. cheers jeff.[:)]
