I have four XZX's. Don't recall the size, but they may be 165x15. They are still mounted on clean, silver-painted GT6 wheels with shiny chrome trim rings. I can't imagine putting those wheels back on

Alas, they could not be 15in at all, not on original GT6 wheels. I just checked, waded through the remains of last weekend's 9 inches of snow. They are 155SR13. Sorry. However for anyone building a c

Thanks for the quick reply, Randall. Less HC, I think. I try to keep the valves locked into spec. I have noticed that a change of just .001" seems to make a big difference, at least in how smoothly i
