[urq] Tire size ideas?

[laraa at sympatico.ca]

I think it was 235/45VR15, a size very difficult to find. A least that's
what a 2005 Sport-Auto article said for the dark blue MTM-prepped car
featured in the magazine. Norbert Clement was the owner of that car.

A Google search found this tread with a few pictures of a Michelin tire on
the 9 in rim : looks like an old XGT V4 to me.

Now, in 2011, I think Michelin still produce the old TB15 in the appropriate
size for the SQ. Will be very expensive though.

I have a set of the 9" sport q wheels I want to put on my '85 and was 
wondering what size rubber to put on them.  I have pretty much stock 
suspension.  I'm not even sure what the stock size was for the sport q 
or if it would fit on mine without rubbing.  Any suggestions 
appreciated .
