INFERNO Z07

Hmmm, getting my 'new' vert next week. It's got perfect tread, 8-10 year old BFG Radial T/A's on it P225/70/15 so it's getting new ones.

Question - I had a '79 in '79 with the 255/60/15's and was thinking about putting that size on this one. 27.1" vs 27.3" diameter so no real speedo issues.

Any fit issues w/ a stock '75? Anyone have photos of an earlier C3 wi the 255's on a stock Ralleye wheel that you could post/email me? I don't want it to look 'odd', just a little more rubber on the road would be nice. I think....

255/60-15's will fit nicely. Depending on dimensions of your specific car (they're all different), you may get some rubbing in the front when you do a hard turn (into a parking lot or up a driveway cut).

I agree with topless. I have a 75 with the aluminum wheels from an 82. The 25560R15s will make the car look a little more muscular without looking out of porportion. I had to shave the right front a very small amount just as the 82 was from the factory. Send me a PM if you need a pic.

I've got 78 Anniversary wheels on mine and am running 25560R15.

255/60s on aluminum wheeled 73 vert.

They do rub up front when fully turned but not enough to worry.

255/60 on my 70 no issues at all.

I have 245/60s all around with no problems on my 72.

but I would put 245/60/15's up front no rubbing and they look the same as the 255's on the rear just one inch smaller for turning

According to BFGoodrich's website, a Radial T/A has the following:

Tire Size -- Section Width on Measuring Rim Width -- Overall Diameter
P245/60R15 -- 9.8 on 7 -- 26.6
P255/60R15 -- 10.2 on 7.5 -- 26.8
