Having a difficult time searching online for new front tires. Seems either no one has them or never did.

How far can I go either up or down with the 165 or 55 number and find something close?

On your thread you have a 2014 Spyder STS .... so I feel the safe MAX size would be a 175/55-15 .... I once used a 185/50-15 on my 14 RT , however I bent the fender brackets and added washers to the mounting bolts ..... going smaller is not a problem ... the traction loss will be minimum...... JMHO .... Mike :thumbup:

Thank you, Sir. I’ll check on that size a bit.
