More tires

Going to order a set of 175/50HR13 for my little Abarth if they do not fit can I fit these on my 1966 Sprite?

Mark, here is where you can compare tire sizes

https://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp?action=submit

just compared the original (145R13) to 175/50HR13 and the original is for 3.5-5 inch rims while yours are for 5-6 inch rims. the big difference is a 10.17% diameter difference. certainly from a rim width point of view, it's the same range and 175/70R13.

where are you getting them? (and are you getting a decent price?)

its what was on my car when i bought it and all i've run.. 175/70 13s on stock rims

They are a little too low profile for my tastes, I went with 175/60/13 instead. The 175/70/13's are too tall in my opinion. I own all three sizes by the way. Pics availible if needed.

Going to order a set and hope they will fit on the little Abarth if not the Sprite will maybe get them. Going from 155SR12 to new 13 rims. If not I will try them on the Sprite.

purty - did it get to the trailer on its own steam?
