Whether or not the offset on the rims in question is right for this is trial and error. I have 185/70-13 on stock disk wheels on; /html/spridgets/1998-02/msg00381.html (10,553 bytes)

The next step up, keeping the same outer diameter is the 165/70. This will fit with no problems from all I know (if you are using a sensible offset).
