Re: tires and crosslaces

I had an 85 with 255's very similiar to the car in your avatar. They were Goodrich T/A's and fit fine with no rubbing at either end.

Re: tires and crosslaces

Do a search, this has been covered many times. - 255's are the widest 16" street tire made. - Many 3rd gen owners are running them.
