Subject: SPAM-LOW: 205/60 14 tires

Any one know if 205/60 14 will fit on a scirocco 16v MK2?  I can get 2 for
50 bucks each and wanted to know.


No! 

205 50 14 would fit with the right offset, but I've never seen that tire
size.

The 60 series 205 60 14 would have too much sidewall, and handle like total
crap. 
...Even worse than the 195 60 14. ;)

I'm all for wider tires, as long as they have less sidewall, and the
diameter stays the same, otherwise the handling and speedometer will be
affected.

175 70 13

185 60 14 - 195 55 14 - 205 50 14

195 50 15

HTH!
