    what is the biggest 15" rear tire you can fit in a 87-93 ????

    anybody know. this car has full exhaust and rear coil overs.

    also what backspacing on the rim so it doesn't stick out on the side of the car.

    thanks.

    I have 275/60's on my 89 but i have dumps as well.
    89 Coupe with parts stacked inside of it and about 30#'s of dust on it with no end in sight. :weird:

    I have a buddy that runs 28X12.5 ET Drags on his stang with a 3" MAC catback with the tips, not dumped.

    I would say that is the limit the car needed a little clearancing to fit them in there.

    He runs the stock set up no coil overs and he uses south side machine lift bars.

    The tires are mounted on stock ten holes, they bulge like crazy but the car hits 1.48 60fts so I would say it works not to bad.
