grant mills Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 I have an '84. It had michelins on it when purchased. I forget the size...but I discovered that my speedo was 10% faster than actual speed. After some calculations I switched to 225/70R15 (Comp T/A) rear and 225/60R15 front (because 225/70 rubbed the front inner fender well on strong cornering) It is now time to replace them and I am looking at 205/75R15 as they are closest in radius and will make tire rotation easier.

BRIZ Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 I thought big 'n' little tires are not hip anymore, no? 😅 My 81 with stock wire wheels has: P 205/65R15 in front P 215/75R15 in back The back tires fill the wheel wells quite nice and very rarely rubs. I can post a nice side pic when the rain stops, if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not 215/70-R15? They may be a tiny bit lower in radius, but not enough to care about. That's what I have on my '64 Avanti and I like them. B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A - handle great.
