Frank,
I am running Falken 185/60x13 on my Bugeye. IMO they look good (non
stock) & racy for street tires. Slightly shorter diameter than stock,
but rolling radius very close to original. Needed spacer on rear hubs.
Tires are rated to 130 mph - I don't I will exceed that in the Bugeye,
lol. They are directional so that is a issue with the spare (50/50
chance of being right one).
I searched Tire Rack then did a Google search for different brand I
liked and found a local discount place that I could pick up from ... no
shipping cost. Tire's cost about $39 each, including tax.
My 0.02.
