    What did you do to your shop today?

    Will a 295/55r15 tire fit a 81' monte carlo? Just wondering, I'm planning to get some M/T ET Street S/S and a pair of 15x8 wheels.

    I have 295/55R15 MT Drag Radials on the rear of my Monte on 9.5" rims and I did a frame notch to give me the needed clearance.

    FINAL CHOICE… variable or constant

    The Regal is lowered 1" and it has 17" x 8.5" all around with 275/50 rears and 235/50 fronts.
