    I'm considering several wheel/tire options... would love some input/ideas from anyone as far as sizing goes. Not looking to start a bias vs. radial debate, as i plan to keep the complete set of radials mounted for easy changability... I love the look of bias plys though, and was considering several options. I definitely want skinnier back wheels/tires than the massive 285/70 15s i have in the radials (mounted on 8" wheels) Was thinking of a 820-15 on a 7" wheel out back, with a 560-15 on a 6" wheel up front... 5" would fit the tire better, but the backspacing on a 5" lets my brakes hang out the back of the wheel too much... if i had cool finned buick drums that would be ok, but i'd like to hide my GM discs as much as i can. Firestone Deluxe Champions were the specific model i was looking at, in a blackwall. I also considered moving to a 16", but they seem quite a bit more money than 15", especially when buying wheels and tires both.

    This is what i consider the ideal setup as far as wheels/tires go, but I really can't say I even know what sizes these are... ( i think 16 " diameter, but no clue on wheel width/offset or tire size... I just know they look killer.
