moosens Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 My 78 4wd wagon is 155/80 R13 I thought Brats were the same or 165's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brat78 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 If you find an all terrain r13, let me know. I will have to buy tires soon, and really can't find many options in a 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffanyus Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 I went to my local small tire guy shop that gets me good deals on cheap new tires. He found me Doral tires for my brat they are size 185/70/13. Thats the smallest and closest size he found me for my brat. All 4 and installed for $255.. So I got me some new tires!!!!

ITBandit Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I have 155's on mine right now, But i like the look of the bigger 185's I was worried they might rub up front when i turn though are you having any problem with that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbosubarubrat Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 u would have the rubbing problem like me if u where running 195/75/14's on peugeots:grin:they only rub on very sharp turns but it gives me about a 3 inch lift:headbang:i need to adjust the front suspension which will lift it about another inch in the front and take away the rubbing problem:headbang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I ran 185/80R13 tires on my '78 Brat that was slammed to the ground. Didn't have any rubbing issues though I did burn through the rear set in 2 months..... RWD Brat FTW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
