Default Tyres again...

Tyres again...well just dumped some old and too big tyres that were on the old girl...for some strange reason I bought 235 60 15 mastercraft avangers some six years ago . The survived sitting for about two years but they went hard , were too big too heavy and put vibration through the steering box. So after much research I chose 215 70 15 maxxis as the new tyre. Not having sixteen inch wheels reduces choice...but I wanted to stay with the jag teardrops and having driven with the new tyres just a few k's Im more than happy so far with what ive got. It could be the old ones were so bad....but these ones are a good match to the origonal pirellis sizewise at 225 65 15, slightly thinner...slight increase in diameter. Should be no big deal. FYI GUYS....
