which tires should I use??

Hey guys, I just recently aquired my first 1992 Camaro and had a transmission put in. The car is ready for the road except for the tires. It currently has 205/65 15's on (mixed brands). 3 of them are bald and one is flat. Do I need to stick with that size? If not, which size should I go with and why does it make a difference? Also, the car has a 350 in it, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

a 92 should have 16" rims . that said maybe you want to also scout for rims . i have BFG G force sport on my car . good tire , good price , i'm happy . i'm a cruiser not a racer and my car is a true daily driver . good luck with your "new" car .
