Great tire, but from what I've heard and seen, very very tough to fit to a
SWA car. You at least need a Panhard bar (good idea anyway).
You may get away with 175/60, if you can find them (I think Larry Miller
had some sources for this size).
But I agree that the size that most people use with these and other wheels
is 165/70. Like Peter said, they are the smae OD as stock tires.
