tire size problem
Just put a set of eagle alloy 18" rims with 245/45 goodyear eagle tires on the '87 vert. Had to use adaptors from them to fit, but the problem is everytime I take a shape turn the front tires are rubbing like crazy. Is there anything I can do to correct the problem. Are these tires and rims to big? Rick

Re: tire size problem
i have 245/40 on the front on 18" and i have no problems, what kind of backspacing do you have with the spacers?

Re: tire size problem
just looked the tires up and they are 27" diameter? a little big for the fronts, that probably why they are rubbing
