I just called Coker Tire (yippee, they have a store here in my town ). The guy didn't have any white walls in stock  but had some on order. He said that a 195 75/15 should work and not rub. I have 195 65R15 on blanche now. What do you guys think

That is what the guy said at Coker. But he didn't sound too sure if the 75 would rub. I don't want to spend my big "stimulus check" (whenever I get it) on tires that might rub!

My Coker American Classics are P205/60R15's. This is what Coker had on the web site specifically to fit the PT Cruiser. They have 2 inch white walls. I have them on my ride and they are a perfect fit. That being said, when I click on the links for PT Cruiser wide whitewalls, I get an error. But, I looked around and found them on the Coker web site here:
http://store.coker.com/cat/american-classic-whitewall/
and here:
http://store.coker.com/prod/p20560r15-american-classic-2-ww.html
You may want to direct your tire salesperson to this web page or print it out.

What year is yours? I see none of those are the size of my existing tires. Do you think they will work or rub? Hmmmm....money to spend and no where to spend it

My PT Cruiser is a 2005 Convertible. These tires are not the original tire size, but they are the tires that Coker sold and advertised as being for the PT Cruiser. They still have the link on their front page, www.coker.com. You can follow that link to another link that gives the three sizes that work for the PT Cruiser, depending on whether you need tires for 15, 16 or 17 inch rims. If you have 15 inch rims like I do, the P205/60R15's will fit. They will not rub... The fact that the second link does not work any longer may mean that they are no longer available, I'd ask your salesperson.
