Slightly taller than which size?Originally Posted by tailchaser
Oopp... found it...
the 195/50/15.
I ran both 205/50-15 and 225/45-15 tireson 15"x7" wheels (as well as 195/50-15 street tires), and really couldn't tell much of a difference among any of them.
What kinda wheels didja get, Sparky? And have you done anything about those brakes yet?

I just want to know if he got the wheels he won't tell us about in flat black... since that would be so stylin' on the BUR...

I thought you were kidding about the wheels being black in color... it seems black is the only color they can get a hold of right now...

Serously, nice wheels, 3Bean. Of course, they may look like chrome dubs on a '78 Monte Carlo when you put them on, but nice wheels regardless.
