Guest Gp crazy Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 What size winter tire's can I run on my ste of course due to the sudden death of my GP se I need to run the ste all winter but I have 215-60-16 & would like to run 215-75-15 steel rims can I do this? Are they the same height? Thanks jeff b Quote
gpse_97 Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 you should be fine, I think I'm using the same size for my winter tires also. Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 I am going to run 15" wheels (from my 88 GP) on my 95 in the winter. Not sure what sized tires exactly though. I *think* I got 2 wheels that are 215-75-15, they were off a van, but they're Michelin X1s 8) . So I'd just need 2 more.. maybe true winter tires and put them in the front. I also want to get a nice greasey undercoating done too. Quote
gpse_97 Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 I am also getting an undercoating done for sure! Quote
DOHCRagtopguy Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 Goddamn white shit, I hate winter! Quote
skiiirt Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 You all complain too much. Up here we've already had a week of hell. It's nasty and its just gettin nastier Quote
DaveFromColorado Posted October 20, 2004 Report Posted October 20, 2004 I'm gettin' two more steelies for my car, and I'm runnin' Blizzak's on there. 215-75/15 to be exact. --Dave. Quote

DiscoStudd Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 Go with 205/70/15's if you want to keep your speedometer accurate . They always tell you to "minus one" (the opposite of "plus one," or from 215/60/16 down to 205/70/15 ) the tire size when you choose winter tires... Quote
EurosportZ34 Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 winters are the devil! stick with stock and get some non-speed rated tires for more traction. Quote
