91 Jetta EcoDiesel Tires
« on: December 01, 2012, 12:51:14 am »
Hey all,  I may be in the wrong section but I couldn't figure any where else to put my question.  Currently my 91 jetta has 185 60 14 on it for tires.  Will 185 65 14 fit or will I have rubbing issues?

Any info would be great,.

Thx

185 65 14 will work great. You could run up to 205 i think without rubbing.

Hey thx.   I just want to confirm they will fit even though mine has all the skirting around it with the big bumpers.  It's seems a little Lower too.  Its a wolf edition. Will they still work

My ECO is a BB wearing 185 65 14... I've not driven it (parts-car), but rolling it around the lot has no rubbing.  PO used it daily.

185/60 came stock on GTIs..

185/65 should work fine..
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
