Someone will have to refresh my memory on the stock
tire size because i've been running 225/50r15(smaller)
for a while now and will soon be upgrading to a 17x8
rim. According to sources online, the stock tire size
is a 215/60r15 which means a 255/40r17 would be close
to stock rolling radius. I think Ron W. has ran 255's
on his V8 and I was curious as to see how it
interfere's with a stock suspension or lowered
suspension as well as different links to pictures.
I'll post pictures of the wheel and tire combo as soon
as i purchase the tires and get them installed. While
i'm in there and after replaceing tires I want to get
an alignment so I might as well replace tie rod ends
and whatever else I haven't replaced yet on the front
suspension. Thanks folks.
