What size tires and wheels do you have?

They's yay wide, yay tall, "tars" mostly black, rims mostly silvery...kinda glittery, and I like 'em!

Current tire size p245 60 r14 SS rally wheels
Whats the best way to buy a rim and tire combo? This is for a spare only.
Used is fine.
Thanks

All of my cars roll on the same size all 4 corners except my 68 Malibu. It has very wide rears and skinny fronts but I will change them to same someday. I like to rotate them.

I might be the only guy running on staggered 16X8 225's and 17X9.5 295's she used to squat a bit in the back and now she has a nice rake to her stance.

Still trying to figure that one out. Grumpy and I don't agree on alot of things, so I told him that he could pick out the tires and rims, I just have to OK them. Not sure he is liking that one. lol

What setup do you have on your car, and does having larger tires on the rear help?

Very good question and glad to hear you are "light in the rear" ... you should consider yourself lucky! LOL

I think an additional question would be "what do you think looks good and handles best" ... and personally I would go with the big and littles on rallys. As far as rotating, I do not think that should enter into the equation but, assuming the tires (or rims) are not directional I would think flipping from side-to-side would solve any wear problems .... and, of course, the rear set should ALWAYS wear faster than the front. <wink>

Hello everyone,

I bought an 1970 SS454 Chevelle 3 months ago and I have some doubts about some things.
One doubt its about the tires. When I went to states to take a look to the car it has a F70-14 non radial tires. So the seller said me he's gonna change the tires for me but when the car arrives to Spain last month I realized he put "BF goodrich radial T/A 225/60R15" on the 4 wheels, so put a smaller size. All the people is saying me to put again a 70 size cause the car will run better and I'll save some gas too. What do you think about it?
