Tire Size Charts
Re:: Tire sizes for 14
Here’s one for the Tech Bin.
I got tired of going back & forth comparing tires sizes to see what will fit and what won’t. So I throw these charts together to help others in the same need. These charts should help you pick the right tires for the car. I did 14” for the Thing rims, 15” for the DOH, and the 16” for the rich people who can afford those rims!

Re: Tire Size Charts
Nice, Scott.......
but the stock 15" Beetle tire is a 165R15. The implied aspect ratio is either 80 or 83 depending on your source, not 60 as shown in your chart.

Re: Tire Size Charts
Nice idea, Im close to picking out itres sizes for my Volksrod project "Operation X". Im aware of sizes, charts, and calculators, but is there a post with photo/size references used on Volksrods. Nice to know what a particular size actually looks like in use.
