Tyres for a 912
Tyres for a 912
I have the chance to purchase 185/70 x 15" wheels for the 912. Will these fit?
Advice, please.

I believe 185/70 x 15's are the correct original size tyres for a 911/912 so they should fit fine. They can be difficult to get hold of these days and when they are available can be very expensive so if they are a good price and quality then go for it.

Many thanks...I'll now go for them.
I might even go for the whole lot, if they're that difficult!

depends if you are running 5.5 inch rims or 4.5
a 66 car is more likely to be 4.5 therefore 185's may be too wide.
I run my car (4.5 inch steels) on Michelin XASs 165s

And I dare not reveal what tyres they are (competition style) or how little I paid...but less than retail.
