2 out of 3 ain't bad. The "60" is the height of the tire.jadedinpa said:the tires you have are probably 235/60/15s. the first number is the width of the tread. the second number is the ratio of the tread width, i.e. 60% of 235. the third # is the rim diameter.
if you are going to get a set of 16" pony wheels, those tires won't fit. you would have to get a set of 16" tires, preferably 225/55/16 sized tires.

true - hence why some passenger tires have less of a contact patch than a same numerically-sized performance tire. some passenger tires have quite an overhang of sidewall over the edge of the tread. (note that most performance oriented tires have a lower profile [aspect ratio], so there is less overhanging - so my analogy is skewed as it is harder to find performance tires and passenger tires of the same size (and aspect ratio). i think ya kinda get what im tryin to say).cleanLX said:225, as mention'd above, is the width measured at the sidewall. Tread width, depending on tire design, can be significantly less.
