Default Tire size question

I did a search and dint find exactly what I was looking for thought it has been asked ten thousand times. I have some 15X4 weld prostars and I am looking for the size tire I need that will keep close to the stock ride height, I found 165/15 but waht is the other number?What is everyone running? Thanks

There is no other number. It's 165R15. Not sure why there is no aspect ratio but that's the size I run. When you go to the tire place just ask for Volkswagon tires to use for skinnies, they should know what you're talking about.

the 165/15's are metrics radials and the others are Bias-Ply. I ran the 26x7.5x15s with regular Radials and DR in rear on street never had any issues, just have to be particular on the air pressure.
