Wheel questions

I agree with Ben, the 255 should work on an 8 inch rally. On the front, 235's would be about the limit to keep from scrubbing the frame.

I have 255/60/15 on 15X8 rims all the way around.
No rubbing, but if the car sit just a bit low, it will rub. Some will anyway due to body variations. When the 60s cam out as an option, the front wheel lip was trimmed about 1/2 inch to prevent rubbing. Buy my 75 does not rub.

And while it's true great minds think alike, what does that have to do with us???

Aw, c'mon Ken!!!!!! Modesty gets you nowhere here, we all know you got it goin' on!!!!!!!!!

So what your saying is that I won't have to buy new tires. look at me saving money.

Thanks guys

You're really not saving any cash! Believe me when I tell you, it will just go some place else on the car!

Amen to that brother!

I have the 8" rally wheels with 275-50-15 on the rear. I have also run 265-50-15 on the front (since 1986) until this year when I went to 235-60-15 on the front for more of the big-n-little look. The 265-50-15's rubbed slightly when the wheel was turned to lock, but no other rubbing at all. I have also seen 275-60-15 on the stock rally wheel on the rear. Kind of tall and makes the car sit high in the rear....My 2 cents...
