For the rears, I think so. most cars with tyres as wide as 225 have a larger diameter or sidewall. The selection is representative of the demand unfortunately!

I think some classic 911 uses the same 225-50-15 tyre, but that's about it, odd size.

We are lucky Toyo still make the T1-R in those sizes, or we'd be snookered for a decent budget tyre.

Front tyres on a Countach are 225/50/15. Perhaps we should join up with the Lamborghini Owners Club for a group buy. :-k

I think I'd stick to T1R's at less than half the price if I was on stock wheels! :shock:

So, that's us, some 911s, and the Countach (so far).

I'll pop something on Pistonheads, see if there's owt else.
