Hello,

Just registered and I'm hoping this is the year I finally go Darkside. I want some opinions on tire size. I am considering the following: 165/80R15, 185/65R15, or 195/65R15

I would prefer the wider 195, but since it's going on a 1300S I wasnt sure if it would be rubbing.

Also, which tire size will get me closer to an actual speedometer reading.

Thanks in advance.

Hey Toasted,

Glad to see you got this site up. Thanks.

Green Valley,

Give us a couple of weeks on this....they are getting limited the 165's....but don't count them out, they are fantastic tires. It's just that we are trying to get more options for the stock 1300'a because our rims are so narrow, not just any tire will fit and not just any brand.

So, hang with us and we will get you an answer.. Congrats and Welcome to the site.

Yep, the word on the street is there's a 205 that will fit the stock 1300 rims. Testing that now. Very Happy
