I'm flaring the rear and want to run 225x55x15 to keep diameter the same as previous tire but when I search for tires, I don't see any available in this size at the big chain/discount tire stores. Is this size still avalable and if so, where are you getting your tires? Thanks, Mark

60 series is period correct. If you go 16's be prepared to spend big dollars to get a set of 16x8 Fuch wheels, but the tire choices are far more plentiful. You aint kidding there. I'm thinking of going with Superlites just due to this fact. You can get a complete set for less than a pair of 8's. |
