'I Roll' on taller tires? 200 1984

posted by  someone claiming to be Al A. on  Mon May 20 03:40 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I'm hoping that someone on the board has used tires with aspect ratio sizes of 70, 75 or greater on a 240 with 15" wheels, and can advise me on what fits.

Because the pavement I drive on is lousy, I'd prefer a little more sidewall deflection and less crispness in handling to getting my fillings rattled by a 65 series or shorter tire.

The car is a 1984 245GLT, stock Virgo wheels, ride height very close to as-new, suspension in good shape. It is always lightly loaded and not driven very hard.

Thanks for any replies, even conjecture.
