I want a cool looking tyre that fills the arch - somewhat similar to those seen on the Magnus Walker cars of the moment. Any ideas?
My car is narrow bodied with Fuch rims, the small ones...7J15 thingys! Not the deep dish etc.

The short answer is that there aren't any tyres that fill out the arches on standard rims. The period correct choice on a 1970 911T would be Michelin XAS (165 x 15")

I've got 7x15s on the front of my 911T. I'm using 205/60x15 Continentals, they fill the arches nicely and only rub occasionally on full lock. A bargainous £80 or so.
