ok i'm almost ready to buy my tires for my 81 malibu. i just want to be sure i don't run into problems with tire fitment. right now i have the stock housing (7.5)and have read where the max tire size is 255x60x15 which i want to install. this is the rear. i was going to buy 245's just to make sure i have some wiggle room in case of problems. i have 8 inch wide vision rallys,with 4 1/2 back space. i would be ok with 245's but would really like to get 255's if there is no problems. i'm just about ready to install my QP 9 inch ford which is made for my g-body so it is the same width as the stocker in there now. i'll run the new tire and rim setup for a while before i make the swap. the rear disc brake set up says it will be .125 wider. i don't think that will be a problem just being a 1/8 wider on each side. i'll run my koni coilovers and have mocked them up and it looks good to go. just want to be sure the 255's will be ok without any rubbing problems. what do you think? thanks
