Hey guy's just joined yesterday and i'm liking what I see on here. I'm from New Brunswick Canada and have a 87 Cutlass Supreme. My car is not my first Gbody as I had a 83 & 85 Cutlass and a 85 GP before this one. My 87 has a 350, 98 350 Vortec heads, RPM intake, Edelbrock carb, Holley blue fuel pump, headers, 2 1/2" dual exhaust, 7.5" rearend with 2:73 POSI, built 700r4 transmission with a stage 2 shift kit and Corvette servo. I'm thinking about changing the rear gears to 3:42's and going with a different tire/wheel package. I have 15" Weld Pro stars or Centerlines in mind. If i do go this direction does anybody have idea of a tire size I should run? I was thinking for the front 15x7 with 215/70/15's and 15x8 with 255/60/15's on the rear. The car currently has 215/70/14's on it now. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Welcome aboard!
Very nice Cutlass you got there. 8)

As for wheels, I personally like the look of the OEM wheels. Maybe consider a set of 15" 442 wheels...maybe even aftermarket 17" 442 Hurst/Olds style wheels. ..if they make such an animal.

Welcome to GBF. Be careful this place is addicting :p I love your ride. I had a 85 Salon myself. Loved it and miss it even more. Enjoy the site

I do like the stock wheels and I would like to find a set of stock 15" 442 wheels for it. I just haven't come across them yet. I'm going to look through the winter and see what i find.

They do come up for sale on the site occasionally. However, shipping them up to NB could be the deal breaker.
