There are two sizes that are out there that would work for us. Small at 26 to 29" in diameter and medium at 29" to 31" in diameter. When I finalize the tire cover I will post a picture of it along with the sizes of tire each size is supposed to fit.

On the PUCH logo, I think the green would look sharp too... but as we all know multicolor will be more expensive. I was thinking a white paint on black vinyl version that is the same as the PUCH badge that goes on the Syncro by the driver side door. Where ever the silver is, will be white.

Question:

Will the size be made to order or one size fits all? If the latter maybe someone with experience speak up about what range of sizes of tire can be covered by one size cover so the best compromise can be made?

I run 235/75R15 and I'd consider one of each (especially if the Puch one has green silkscreening).

Also are we takling black, white, or other vinyl color?
