stinkydogfilms Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) Hi, What would be a good tire size for 15 inch pugeot steelies? Max size without cutting? This would be on a NON-lifted 86 Brat or 84 NON-lifted wagon. What is a good type of tire for rolling on beach sand? Thank you, Mike Edited February 17, 2017 by stinkydogfilms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratRod Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 195/55r15 is almost the same as stock. No idea how they would handle sand, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrgvanman Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 When I lived near the beach in SoCal I tried the stock 185/70R13s on the sand without airdown and they were satisfactory for level driving. My guess is that those 15s would be better as they would offer more ground clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEECHBM69 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I run 195/70/14 on my EA81 hatch, no lift, no rubbing. I air down to 16psi, and have yet to get stuck. A 195/60/15 is about a half inch less in diameter, same width (compare here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc?tires=195-60r15-195-70r14) I have those on my EA82 wagon, but have never had it on the beach. I can only assume it would perform similarly, even with a slightly shorter sidewall. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
