I'm going to get a new set of 670 15 tires for my Avanti and I noticed that there is more than an inch difference in the tire diameter from the different tires available in a 1" whitewall. The Firestone Vintage is 28.58" The Goodyear Custom Super Cushion is 28.3" The U.S. Royal is 27.5" The B.F. Goodrich is 27.42"
My carpet lined spare tire well looks to have maybe just less than 28.5" of diameter at its smallest.
So I am wondering if anyone has any experience with how the currently available Firestone or Goodyear 670 15 tires fit into the carpeted spare tire well? Or should I just get the U.S. Royal or BFG?
