Re: TR3 tire size & recommendations for disk wheel
I ran 185/65-15 on stock rims for awhile on my TR3A, and liked the result. Not an approved match, as Andy says the tire makers recommend a 5" minimum wheel width. But I found a shop that was willing to install them for me, and they handled noticeably better than the old 165s did, IMO. But I also had sway bars by then, so maybe they wouldn't work as well on a stock suspension.
Our local club takes a run up Angeles Crest Hwy (which is a fairly twisty mountain road) every year. Few years back a fellow club member with a very original TR3 was complaining that everyone else was driving too fast ... I told him I wanted to drive faster /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif
The results were so good that I continued going wider ... wound up with 205/55-15 on TR6 rims. Next step was going to be a stiffer front sway bar and maybe a Panhard rod, but unfortunately there was this Toyota that wasn't watching the road ...
