Re: tyres
195/80/14 fits without issues ...driving around with them for two years now. Speedo is 100% exact now.
Some people have fitted 205/80/14 on the standard narrow 5.5" rims. VW fitted that size on some Syncros, but they did it on a wider 6" rim ..I guess they did so for a reason as even the 195's bulge quite a bit over the rim (see garage for pics) ...205 might be a step too far.
