tire dimensions

What are the stock tire dimension of my TA 85? I am now running on 245/60 15 but the tires toutch the wheelwells at full steering. Should I use narrower wheels?

A 245/50 15 would be a better choice.

If it came with the 15's stock then it probably had 215/65/15's on it. 235/60/15's are the same height and tend to look more appropriate on them.

Your looking for a tire with a diameter of 26".That's the diameter of the original 215/65-15.83 Crossfire is right about the 235/60-15 being the size you're looking for.I have TigerPaw GTS on my '83 Z28 in that size.I haven't had any problem with them rubbing in back or scubbing in front full steering lock either direction.
