StlRegal's 87 Regal Project

Lol. I'm all for it but moneys tight right now and need to be saving for a house. Buying new tires for wheels I don't really want or worse breaking an axle just isn't something I want to deal with right now.

Fair enough. Lol. I understand the budget problem. I'm in the process of buying a house right now myself. I bet you're having fun in the Regal either way.

So I got some wheels to put on the regal. C3 corvette aluminum wheels. A regal I looked at buying but passed on had on a set of these and I thought they looked pretty sharp. I was gonna go with basset or Bart steel NASCAR style wheels but I found these cheaper and they're lighter.

I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to tires. What size tire can I run on these? They are 15 inch and 8 inch wide. I'd prefer to run the same size on all 4 corners but as fat as I can go with out rubbing. And they must be white letter tires.

Some parts p*rn.

Do you have any pics of such a set up?

No I don't but it is a popular setup. My car had 14's on it and now has 16's on it.
