I don't really know if this falls under technical, but the tech section's cherry needed to be popped anyways.
So I've got some 15x7's and I am looking to go pretty low, and so I'm shopping around for tires, the tire that looks right is a 165/45/15 but it seems as though there is only one company in the galaxy that makes them, federal apparently.
Anyone else run 15's? It's getting to be an obsolete size anymore. Anyone know of a company that makes tires that size besides federal? Or does anyone work in a tire shop that they can run a search that us normal folk wouldn't be able to do?

I'm running a 165/60/15 on the front of my bug. There a few companies doing goofy sizes like that for smart cars. Mostly 155-175. But maybe a bit taller then what your after.

Yeah, I think I finally just decided on 165/45's. They still have just a little bit of stretch on 15x6's. They look pretty good. Other option was 145/65's but damn, they are 20-30$ more per tire lol.

Ended up going with the 165s? Whatever you chose looks like a nice fit.
