A belated Happy New Year to all Porsche, and in particular 356, owners.
My car has the standard painted steel wheels and new tyres are a must before it's used. My local ATS reckon that the standard 165X15 are akin to hens teeth so does anyone know of different sizes that fit without rubbing on wheel arches etc?
Any recommendations as to make or supplier would be gratefully received.

Hi, Martin, They are available - I have a set of Firestones in that size fitted to my 911 T - chromium plated steel rims - 5.5 J. Have a look at www.classictyres.com, although there must be many other websites out there. Arfor.
 
Hi Martin Happy belated new year from your Region - R24 Cambs and Beds[;)] Take a look at http://www.356registry.org/tech/tiretable.html I may even have some in the Garage! I will take a look latter![8|]
 
John, That is very helpful particularly as I am a member of the 356 Register but somehow I did not give them a thought. Silly old boy that I am. As I am almost brand new to the PCGB I have not yet got round to visiting the Region's meetings but no doubt with better weather and a working car I may well get to you one day! All the best, Martin
