I have run 205 60 15 and 215 60? 15 on various Saab 99s using 5.5 inch and 6 inch rims with no problems. (well......it did rub on the guards on the rear...but only on large bumps, very fast corners or heavey loads....would take about a year or so to ware down to the metal, so definatley not major)
I take it that the 900 has less clearance than the 99 or will the 15 x J7 inch sizing actually change the shape of the tyre radically causing it to start fouling?
Cheers
Justin

- 60 may be too big... consider 55 or 50 :) nm, sab, Sun, 3 Feb 2002 18:24:19
