    have a new set of wheels coming 15x7 front and 15x8 rear. I have a new set of 225/70/15 tires that I going to run on the front for now since they were free and new, and I am leaning toward 255/60/15's on the rear. Looking for a little more "undercover" look so like to try and stay away from 275's ( for now) this is a street car.
    i would love to see some pics whoever is running this rear combo.

    i used to run 255 60s on 7 for rear and 235 60s with 7 on the front

    now i run 275 60s on an 8 for rear and 245 60s on a 7

    both combos looked mean

    your combo will still look good fat rear skinny front but the 225s will be a tad taller then the 255s buy like .4 no biggie

    I have 255/60's on the back and 205 75's up front .....

    this isn't a great angle...but I can upload a shot more from the rear if you need it.

    Ask and yee shall receive.
    Thanks Mart. Looks awesome. I looked up an old thread and found your car and comment about the 255's looking a little wider on a 15x8 rim. Cool.
    your car is a beauty.

    Thanks Mike. The is an awesome photo. Other thing that is cool is that I ordered Weld Prostars so its cool to see Welds on yours. A classic tuff look. That car is in the TA cataloge correct?

    None at all, and I prob need new shocks. Someone put those incorrect knockoff spirals on it, and the back are leaking for sure. Seems like the KYB's are highly recommended, I might try those out.

    Those 255's look great in the front and back! I did a search and it seems some people have issues with 255's rubbing in the front and some don't. Gives me a headache! I'd like to run 275/60's in the back and 255/60's in the front but I don't want them rubbing.
