Default Re: Day 2 tires--- what are you looking for?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Chandler</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Is it possible for the L60-15 to be pulled in to far at the side walls with an 8&quot; rim, causing the contact patch not to be evenly planted on the road surface, out on the tread edges?


</div></div>

8&quot; are fine for L60-14-probabaly the optimium tire for it IMO. Also the original Goodyear L60-14/15 and N50/15's were smaller in width and height than the average comparable tire back in the day. Not sure why. I measured a N50/15 Goodyear (nos) at a swap meet and the outside diameter was 25.75 and the used (slightly) Pro Trac N50's I have are 26.25 and the M/T are taller than that.

M/T made the largest L60/14/15 in width and height back in the day and still do.
