hey guys.....thinking about getting a set for the rear. i have 235-60-15 all the way around. i was thinking about 235-60-15 MT DR, anyone think that's a bad choice or should i go bigger. if so, what's the most on the stock GN wheels.

I would go with the 275/60 15's thats the biggest you can go.

On the stock rims I would go with the 255/60 especially is you do not want
to roll the fenders or take off the trim.

275 might be a little larger than i want 255 sounds good though.....will it throw the speedo off by being and inch bigger in overall diameter than a 235 or is it negligible.

 

[John Wilde]

You should see about a 4% difference.
The 235/60s are 26.1 inches the 255/60 are 27 inches.

never had a problem on my car with the 275 on stock rims. anyways the 255 sounds good as well. They will be a good setup for you.

im thinking it will be a good choice as well.....gracias fine sirs :biggrin:

How is the ride height on the rear of your car?
Are you able to run them with out rolling the fenders?
That tire in a perfect world is too big for a 7inch rim.
I have it on a 8 inch and wish it was a 10.

you mean on my car?

These work very well, and are a great alternative to a car not yet ready for 28in tires!
