Would someone be able to tell me what is the largest tire I can put on a stock suspension with a 15.5 wheel.
Currently running 185x65x15 and want to go a little more aggressive without tires rubbing on the fenders. THanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/santa_smiley.gif) |

I’ve tried 205-50-15 and 205-55-15. Because they are smaller diameter than stock sizes you get a little better acceleration and you can get them in softer rubber compound so they stick to the road. I prefer 205-55-15 because the 205-50-15 made the ride too rough. They don’t look period correct but the extra width also protects the rims if I happen to touch a curb while parking ( hasn’t happened yet).
