tire question 200

posted by  someone claiming to be robdog on  Thu Jun 17 16:55 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Has anybody mounted 205-55-15 tires on thier brick? How do they fit & will they rub? I have IPD sway bars, but not lowered yet.
Thanks, Robbie

    I had 205/60R15 mounted on Virgos for my 84 245DL and they never rubbed against anything. They were a bit old and the tires had cracks in it so today I put a fresh set of 195/60R15, a little bit smaller but a much nicer ride. Your 205/55/R15 are also smaller then the tire I had this morning so I do not see ay problem if you were to get them on your brick. Good Luck!
