Owner of a '65 Tiger. Has Dayton bolt-on wire wheels 15x6" (4" backspace).
Currently has 195/55/R15 (OD=595mm) Bridgestone Potenza RE002s all around. However, on the front the tires sticks out by about an inch, which isn't legal in Australia.
Question is, how different can the size of the fronts be compared to the backs? I see many people here with pairs having an OD difference of about 10mm.
The tires I'm looking at for the front are 175/65/R15 (OD=609mm) Dunlop BlueResponse, which I think will fit without me having to cut the body. Alternatively, if they don't fit, I could go with 175/55/R15 (OD=574mm) Bridgestone RE050A (asymmetric non-directional).
Also, I'm reasoning that asymmetric non-directionals can be sufficiently rotated within the same axle -- am I correct?
