the max would have to be a 215/60 14. there aren't many of these tires that will fit the 5.5" rim but i was able to find one of that size on tire rack. the BFGoodrich Radial T/A. they say it will fit but i would be a little warely about sqeezing those tires on the phone dial rims.

Check my sig for the tires I have. I picked them up from Tirerack.com for $51 a tire shipped to my door.

I love these. They grip nicely and spin quietly, so cops don't notice a hard take off. If you want, though, they will leave some nice black marks too!

They look really good on the rims too, not any problems at all.
