165/65 /15 was for Toyota Prius in Japan at 99 or 00.The size is really popular for air cooled VW there. I am looking for it here in The US. Does anybody know the size? I can not find it.

The size is 165 65r15. They aren't sold here. I tried to find them over a year ago as well. Good luck.

You have a Bridgestone tires ,model B250 in 165/65R15 and this is a great tires.

Wouldn't they be a little too small?

The original tire size is 165R15, which is 165/82/15.

Or is it equivalent to a 155R15?

So I guess the only way I can get them is either through Japan or the UK? International shipping will kill me but it will be worth it,as I'll have the only set in town Cool

Large selection of companys do that size tyre here for the uk market, but they all seem to be in a winter tyre Confused

search for that size and click the winter option
