is it possible to run 255/60/15 all around
on 87 gn rims or turbo t rims?
car has new stock hight coils and shocks.
any one using this size?

on the front no...

you will rub like hell, besides IMO that would look tacky...a good combo would be 215 or 225's in the front and 255's in the back

the back is fine...i believe you can go even bigger in the back with 275's...but some have rubbing and some don't...

I have 235/60/15 on the front. Mines doesn't rub.

255/60's work fine on the back. I found that even with 235's on the front I was getting some rubbing. Some do and some don't though.

I run 295/50s out back and 235/60s up front with no rubbing. I personally like the way the 295s fill the fender.

i run 235-60-15's on front and i think they rub on full lock but im not sure if its rub or something else im hearing. i run 275-60-15's and the only time i rubbed is when i hit about a 4 inch deep pot hole in my friends driveway.

joe, you don't get any rubbing with 295's? have you adjusted your suspension?

Nope. I must be one be one of the lucky ones. I do run a passenger side airbag though. Even without the airbag, the only way there was any contact is if I hit a really serous pothole. Then it would rub just a little and there were never any vibile marks on the tire. That is with 15x8 wheels with a 3.5" backspace.
