I'm planning to use 165/65R13 on the stock front rims, to match the height increase in the rear from the 175/60R14s. However the tire dealers seem concerned about this, specifically that they might...

My Beat came with some odd-seeming tyres so I wanted to check how far away from stock diameters they are. There are scads of tire-size calculators around but here is the best and most fun one I've...
