    Just got them over the weekend. Hankook!! I'm hoping it's not too tall of a tire, I still want to lower the car 1".

    I would say let me know your thoughts, but they're on to stay!

    I also have 235/75s on mine. Need a bigger rim to go much fatter with tires.

    Nice tyres. They look old skool, less round from the side, very nice.
    Are they 235? Not 225?

    Yes - mine are 235/75 15. Next step is a 1" drop. I think that will be a nice look, I just hope the fronts don't rub.

    Thanks.

    I have the same tyre size on my 69 Riviera. I have Cooper's. Nice tyres but not that great in balance. I was thinking of getting your Hankook tyres or Maxxis tyres. I think Hankook looks more classic. Good luck on the 1" drop. Not sure if that works without rubbing.
