I was wondering what tire sizes some of you are using if you have the skinny/wide setup? I am looking for a skinnier size to put up front now that I have no powersteering, but I want to be careful not to put to small of a tire. I have the 16" stock IROC wheel, but I am looking to maybe switch wheels if the $$$ is decent. Please help me decide, thanks guys!

 

If you still want to turn fairly ez, then put real skinnies up front. A 225 is HARD to turn w/o power steering. I'd go w/ a 3-5" racing tire.

 

I run 205/70R15 Michelins on 15x6 front & 275/50R15 DR's on 15x8 rear. I got the Michelins from a 2001 Caravan that was totalled for $10 ea. They are almost new.

 

thanks, just so you guys know I have been driving on the 225's for about 2 weeks, my forearms have gained almost 1 1/2 in diameter!

 

Are you using the F-b ody pitman arm for the manual steering box?

The S-10 pitman arm is not as long and will make it harder to turn the wheel (Less leverage)

My steering is not bad for turing p235 60 r15's in the front and I'm a small guy.

15x3 rim and p165r15 turns easy with manual steering
