What Tires?
alrite im pretty new to this site and i was wondering how to beef up my tire situation on my 86 Trans Am. The rims are stock and i want to get wider and bigger tires on. you know really make the well look "full of tire". I m in vancouver so it rains alot and i still want some traction in the rain but at the same time i want lots of grip when its dry. any ideas on brands, sizes, prices,and places i can get them. any info is welcome thanks

How much do you have to spend, and what do you want to do with the car? When its dry, what kind of driving? Straight line? Corner carving? If you want it to handle at all, don't touch a 70 profile tire, and don't touch the Firestone Indy 500 tires. They aren't bad tires really, just cheap.
