tires sizes for 89RS
I have an 89 RS camaro in desperate need of new rubber. i'm looking at 275 60 15's for the back or possibly 295 50 15's. i did some work with my tape measure and they look like they'll fit. does anyone know the widest tires that'll fit under that car?. right now the 215's are shot and they spin no matter what even on dry pavement. any advice is appreciated thanx

as far as i know 275 is the widest you can go on that wheel. 295 is like crazy wide and it would be really expensive. i'd say 245 or 255 would be a good width to go
