Wondering if anyone can tell me what size tires they are using on 15x5 Mooneyes Speedmaster wheels. I’ve had a set NIB for about 10 years, and didn’t realize they are only 5 inches wide. I have a pair of 185/65r15 tires which I think will be ok, and a pair of 195/85r15 which I think will be too big. Application is a 65 Squareback with wide 5 discs on all 4 corners.
Please share your thoughts and real world experience.

Use the 185 65 15 on the rear, get 165 60 15 for the front assuming car is lowered, if not still 185 rear and normal stock 165 front
