tires question

[thurpp]

i have a 86 cut supreme and i got some 22x8 rims and 3 inch lift cups and i was wondering what size tires to buy.
i was told a 265 30 22 is what i would need but i can get some 265 35 22 for cheaper but are they to big even with the 3 inch lift. thx

for the front 15x6 wheels with 205 70 15
for the rear 245 60 15 on 15x8 wheels.

sell the 22's to fund this, you can use the 3inches of lift in the back if you want to run like a 295 60 15 on a 15x10 wheel.

Trust me you'll thank me when you car looks awesome and not all lifted on wheels like poor peoples suv's.

thx for that but id rather have the poor peoples suv with 22s lambo doors and a beat down system

well... according to my research they should be about 3.1 inches taller than stock. i don't think the .1 inch will make a difference, and if you have a 3 inch lift, assuming it doesn't settle, they should be fine. however i would spend the extra on the 265:30:22 because they are almost an inch shorter.
