Same wheels! That's just what careful tire stagger can do.

Rears are 20mm wider...barely noticeable, but it gives it "stance".

245 and 265?

235/60/15 and 255/60/15

Agonized over this shit for about 3 days. Think I nailed it.

Stock was 215/70/15 or F70-15

Nice. I went 245's all the way around my cutlass. stock was a 195. Thought about a stagger, but with my love of the burnouts, I like being able to rotate tires. :lol:

Nobody fucking makes a 245 anymore. Not in 15.

Ideally, I wanted 245 in front, and 265 in rear. Both sizes are not really available anymore in a 15.

There's a 275, and even a 295 (!), but that shit woulda looked boy racer out the ass.

This is spot on for my taste, and no rubs.

Those are only 15's? Wow.

I guess that makes sense though. I don't know anything about the 70's, but during the 80's, 16's were considered exotic :lol:

Nailed it!

The raised white letters look 1000x's better than the red stripe. :dthumb:

245's in a 15, same rubber as you.

Try to source them today.

They're kinda phasing out a lot of their 15" sizes. All new cars have bigger shoes.
