What tire size and type should I use for 87 740 Wagon? 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Wormy J on  Fri Dec 27 10:18 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Just about to replace the tires on my 87 740 Turbo Wagon (auto) and noticed that it has 205-60 15's instead of 195-60 15 as noted on the data plate. I was just going to go back to the 195's as they should be better in the wet and snow. Or should I stay with the 205's? Thinking about going to 65 or 70 series to lower the revs also. My not be a siginifant amount to bother.

Any input about a good brand tire ( or bad!) too would be helpful. Looking for something that is great in the wet and snow but niot a winter tire. I will leave them on year round.
Thanks,
Jeremy
