ok this is a noob question to most of you guys, but either way help me out.

i have 4 PRECEDIO DEMON CAMBER CST. they are 15 inches. Two of the rims have perelli tires with the size of 205/60/15. They seem like monster truck tires for 15's. The stock tires i have on the 240sx now is 195/60/15. My brother suggested 215/60/15 and it look like the stock ones i have on the 240 now instead of the monster truck looking perelli tires. any suggestions if this is correct or what size i should get.

195/60/15 is one of the stock sizes and so is 205/60/15. I dont know about the 215/60/15, but im sure someone will know.

215/60-15 is too large. Use the 195/60

o ok, but i believe the demon cambers have a bigger offset then the stock ones. thats why i'm confuse with what my brother says. i might just stick to 205/60/15 or maybe go 205/55/15 if possible.

you can see them at http://www.takumiproject.com just put in 4 lug bolt pattern and it should be in the list.

205/55-15 is a fun size but a bit shorter than the OEM.. not a problem if you're expecting it.

For a while I did 205/55-15 Toyo #4's on front225/50-15 Toyo RA-1 on rear mounted on 15x5 +35 early 80's junk wheels

Whatever wheel/tire you end up using, let us know!

i'll post my pictures when my rims are complete along with my car......currently waiting on someone to get my sr20 motor started.

most likely i'll go with 205/60/15 to be on the safe side.
