Toyo 888s for 15" wheels are available in 225/50 as well as 235/50 (for the widest sizes) - it would be interesting to know whether the tyres mounted are 225 or 235 just as a case of reference with respect to tyres that actually fit 10" wheels.
I agree that the tyres - though stretched a bit - seem to fit ok. That only adds to the interest of knowing what tyres they are
Any decent alternative to the costly TB15s is worth being explored!

Those wheels are the rears off my 914/6 which Mark has borrowed for test fitting. They are actually 9" Minilites , and the tyres are 225/50/15 888s .
I have a set of 10s , which I was going to use on the rear of my ST - 225 s are too much of a stretch - I guess if a 235 is available , they might fit - but 285/40 is a better option.
I am using Yokohama 285/40/15 - cheaper ,and longer lasting than TB15s
Heres a picture of the 225s on the 9s , and the 285s on 10s.
