(02) TIRE SIZE



:Subject: <02> Tire question, comment on younger drivers

:The Michelin MXL's on my '76 02 are about due for replacement. Currently
I am
:running 175-70 13's.  I am considering going with a 205-60 13 (Yoko AVS
:maybe?) .  Can I run a 205 safely on a 13 x 5 rim, or do I need a 13 x
5.5 or
:13 x 6?  My current rims are 13 x 5 minilites (yes the real
ones)...........

Hello Justin,
	I have an 02 as well.  Hold onto that car.  They are becoming
hard to find.
I curretnly run the 205 13r60 AVS's.  They are great tires.  On your
question, I run a 13x5.5 bbs.  It works, but a 13x6 would be ideal. 
Last note. You will have to roll the fenders.  The 205 is a wide one.

Good luck.
