I looked at some tires today in the 245's and 235's, namely Potenza's 970 AS and Michelin Pilots. The 245's look pretty wide off of the car. I have 225/70R14 on it now and I have about a 3-4" gap between the fender lip and top of tire. The diameter of the tire is 26.4", so if I go to the 235's, I may go with a 50 series. I am going to cut the coils in front to get the stance I want before I order new springs. I am thinking the Hotchkis 3" drop.  |
245's up front are no problem................... just not with those wheels. I've run them as well as hundreds of other guys, but I did it on an 8" wheel and 4.75-5" bs. The width and backspace of those 9" wheels will have them too far to the outside in my opinion and will rub. I could be wrong though........
