Vredestein Classic 205/70R15 tires

[nobrakese28]

Hi,

I recently won a set of Vredestein Sprint Classics in 205/70VR15 at a car show. I am curious if anyone has run this tire profile on the forum I checked the tire/wheel fitment post and didn't see anything in this tire size.

It's a pretty tall tire at 25.9", but I think it would look pretty nice. Just curious if anyone is running these tires and if they could post a photo.

Thanks,

Marco

so here is the question, do you have 15" wheels? i have 15", but i run 215/60-15 ... the alternate size is 205/60-15

Hi Scott, funny enough I don't. Car is 100% stock currently. So, I have been incentivized to find a set of 15" wheels.

What I really want are 16 x 7 x 8. I'd like room to grow as I have plans for the brakes.

thats what i thought - 15" wheels are the rarest wheel on the e9 coupe. your best bet is to see if a tire store might be willing to trade the tires for a size that might be more worthwhile for you.

I missed a set of 15 x 7 Rials on eBay a few months ago. That wont happen again.

there are only a few 15" wheels that work on the e9. Weds, BBS Mahle, Rial + Oz are the 3 that i am aware of. but they are all rare. i have the 15" OZ alpina style ... i really like them as the perfect middle between the 14" alpina and 16" alpina / BBS RS (all are my favorites on the coupe)

I have a set of 15" Alpina knock offs... great size/look on an E9. 16's look a bit too modern IMO, 15's allow for a little more tire profile.
