how much rubber on stock rims?
#4
sames ones i used to have, i have 205/60/15s on my gxl wheels (which are collecting dust in my garage..), you could get 215/50 for the rear... i'd leave the front the same: 205/50

On my 87 SE my brother put on 205/70R14's, a bit big but filled the wheel wells pretty nice, they are more like a truck tire but with a higher sidewall it made getting around the awful street conditions we have here in houston. example...bad pot holes. i know you have 15's so id say go with what vipers is saying, more tire to me is better than the tiny amount of straight line performance you get with narrower tires.

i have the same dilemma, but i don't want to buy good tires for the stock 15x6's. i've got it on heresay that you don't really wanna go over 205 on the 15x6's because the sidewall will want to rollover on hard cornering. i'll be finding some nice (price and looks hopefully) 16x7's soon and wrapping them in 225/50/16 rubber.
