I got stock 15" rim on my firebird, can I put 255mm wide or even wider tireon it and both front and rear????

If so, Where can I order online to get 255 wide tire?? (I am live in Taiwan, the maxiam wide 15" tire here is 225/60/15 )

I can't change it to 16" or 17" because the rim size is so different to others, it is very very hard to fine the aftermarket rim in Taiwan.


Thanks

Joe

For the life of me, I can't imagine why you are limited to 225-60-15.
A Japanese tarrif law?
Find/figure way to contact Bridgestone & ask them for the tire dealer location.
Why spend the shipping money?
www.tirerack.com
is one source, also.

Thanks,
You can't image there is no tire wider than 225MM for the 15 inch rim in Taiwan, we got few choice of tire, but it is much cheaper to buying tire in Taiwan than USA.

Pls tell me if 255/60/15 tire fit my stock rim 15*7"??

Can I put 255/60/15 both front and rear??

Thanks for help

Joe

On my ride, the 245-60-15 fits fine on the rear.
I haven't swapped those rear tires up front yet.
I use 215-65-15 up front.
I have the pinwheel styled wheels like in pics above on the Firebird.
I have heard some using tires that wide.
