    Wisdom. The collapsed body bushing suggestion is no BS. That's exactly what was causing mine to lean to the left.

    More wisdom.

    Hi

    My opinion, is this is way our classic Buicks should look like, 215 70R 15 up front and 255 60R 15 in the rear.

    I agree its a good look, but I'm making mine into more of a muscle car now so I thought it should have a better stance to go with it. I think the best is 225/60/14 in the front and 275/60/15 in the rear or maybe a little smaller depending on shock sizes. If anyone has pictures of this setup that would be much appreciated! :TU:

    FYI, this is a freshly redone front end with new front and rear 70 Stage 1 springs with 245/60-15 front and 275/60-15 rear. I think it is just about perfect stance. Your mileage may vary.

    I think it would look even better with 14s in the front. But great looking car!

    Doo Wop Where were you in '62?

    If you go 14s on the front and 15s on the back....what would you use for a spare?

    What's a spare?

    Seriously, I have roadside assistance with a guaranteed rollback as part of my insurance and I don't even carry a spare, jack or tire iron any more.

    That and I keep good rubber on it.
