Then just find a 215/60 -15 with some good specs at TIRERACK.COM...................This size is OK.............Mike :thumbup:

Looks like a lot more tires in this size. Don't like lossing 10 mm on the width but it looks like a lot of people have gone with this size and and love it.

My CoPilot likes the extra girth. :shocked:

Who do you get to mount the tires?:banghead: I was talking with my dealer/salesman last week about tire differences,he told that they wouldn't put on anything but a tire made for Spyders, because the bead on car tires would not seal as well as a Spyder specific tire..:dontknow:At least that is what a Michellan (sic) Rep told him...

LOL :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: what will they come up with next

OK ........BUT !!!!!!

And a whopping 10 MM is what percent of 225 MM....???????..................curious minds would like to know :roflblack: :roflblack: :roflblack: ..................Mike :thumbup:............​PS exactly how much effect does that 10 MM have on the traction , or lets put it this way.........would you rather lose that 10MM or buy another KENDA and keep the 10 MM ???????

you make a good point Mike. :thumbup:

If its actually tread width you are worried about, check out the actual tire dimensions on tire rack. 215 is a nominal size dimension, not actual and each tire is different. Some of the 215s may be as wide or wider than the 225 Kenda.

I will likely go with a name brand 215 to replace the Kenda, with an eye to tread pattern and width.

:agree:,....Also the Tire Rack will tell you both dimensions.......Total tire width and " TREAD " width........and this important , I have found that Yokohama's tend to have less of a curve to their sidewalls than most other tires ...........so for the same width tire you get more tread on the pavement which ='s more traction ++++++++ ....Mike :thumbup:
