  Max stock tire size on stock rims?


So...with the rebate check I'll be receiving with a few short days, I was wondering what's the biggest sizes (Front and Rear) I can put on the stock 7 spoke rims? If anything, I'll go 205/60/15 as normal, but any unique ideas? Anyone?

the fronts you cannot go any bigger with stock suspension.

The rears you can fit 65s on. Thats what i run.

So basically 205/60/15 in the front and 205/65/15 in the back?

Yup, you might be able to go a little wider but I probably wouldn't.

I thought you want the sidewall to be smaller ie less than 60?

The beast lol 91 240sx se ...Stock for now soon to be Ka-t

id drive it, once a week or so. probably gets 6mpg at idle. but the rumble would get the ladies wet, so it justifies drinking gas like homer simpson drinks beer.

You run this on stock rims? The reason why I'm asking is because I plan to have the tires a little bit bigger in the back whenever I decide to dorifto. (which comes every once in a while; not a daily habit.) I just wanna get some ideas before I get new tires.

lol I don't necessarily want a taller tire. I'm just looking for something that's better than the 195/60/15s I have now.
