why not get the right size tires, brand new, for prob about the same price
shipped
 

Exactly, but 195 60 14 is not the correct size.

195 55 14's are $75, and the correct tire size is 185 60 14, and also on
sale for $35.
Regular price is only $37...

Are Falken Ziex Ze 512 tires any good?

	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!
