Hey guys, im trying to decide what tires to get for my 84 Trans am using stock 15x7 wheels. Maybe u guys can post some pics of your cars with those size wheels and tell me what size tires u got on them. Now im thinking of 4 235/60/15's or 4 215/60/15's. Please post ur car pics if u got those tires ! Or whatever u got

Thanks,
Dan

My car is the grey one, but you'll have to look around for some good pics showing the tires. But they look much better than the stock size ones I had before. Rub a tiny tiny bit on a full lock turn but not enough where it even matters its so minor and occasional.

Thanks for the pics guys.. Im thinking 235/60/15's all around, cuz they look good

Or 215/60/15's all around cuz they might handle better over 235's, and their cheaper.

Those 215/60's look good on your Iroc jc92camaro

I also like the 235's cuz their taller and are as tall as the stock tires. 215/60's are 1/2" shorter.

I have been told that the biggest size that'll fit on the back is 295/50/15. sounds like a low profile tire but its not. they are about 10 inches wide and about 5 inches tall off the rim. Used to have a 84 s-10 with a built 350 and a tci tranny, and with that size tire, stock suspension, and a set of cheap $25 lakewood traction bars, that think would hook up, with very little spin and pull 12.5's at 124mph. NO KIDDING.
