Tire Size
« on: April 08, 2006, 09:40:39 PM »
I am looking to change the rear tire on my 1G B6.  I have the stock size of 150/70/17 on it right now.  Should I keep the same size or go to a 160/60/17 or even a 160/70/17?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Ride on!

Well right now I have a 120/70/17 on the front so I am trying to figure out what would match up good on the rear.

Those sizes will make a diff in gearing, handling, etc. The stock size is best all around. I.M.O.
