Tires

[IndyJimW]

I am running Crager Black Slot 8 15" rims with P215/70R15 tires and am thinking of going to 16" rims to get a better selection of performance tires. I'm looking at a P215/55R16 or P225/55R16 tire size. Is anyone else running these sizes?

You would need to verify your rotor offset to spindle, and get spacers for the front.

As I found, the available rim designs for 16 and 17 inch rims that fit the olderstyle

offset like Avanti and Mustang are pretty bad looking on our cars. Mustang can

'get away' with a more muscle car look rim, but the Avanti is 'european'.

Once I get the brake mod done, I will be able to test drive it. The rims fit perfect

in the rear, but the front was off by 1/4 to 3/8 inchs. Your car has a different brake

and suspension design then the original Avanti.
