I am finding that the 195 x 60 x 14s i am running the 16v on are now a rare tyre size, has anyone ever run a 16v on 65's?
If so, do you get any problems with scraping/catching when she drops on her belly? (The car that is, not the wife)

I haven't had any trouble finding 195 60 R14 tyres. Only recently I fitted a new Pirelli P6000 - I went to ATS. OK you pay £50 for it, fitted, but that's not too bad.
I would've thought 65's ARE rare though. (And I do think you'll encounter fit problems).
Persist - the OE spec tyre size is going to work best. Happy hunting [/i]

Bought a full set from these people, very good service, you just need a friendly tyre fitter.
