I'll think I may go with 225's in the back, I've hurd a few people talking about rubbing with the 235, and don't want to risk it, it will definatly look better than the 185's that are on it now. I may stick with the current size in the front. I'd like to get some low profiles and some nice BIG mags on it eventually, but not about to spend that much money right now.
: I'm planning to replace my tires soon, the current tires are in great shape as far as tread is conserned, but they are splitting on the sidewall. I think they just sat way too long. Anyway, I want to put on some wider tires, the tires I have now look really stupid. I don't want to spend too much money on them right now, maybe 200 for a full set.
: I was thinking of replaceing the fronts with the same size, and going as wide and tall as I can in the rear.
: What sizes can I put on the mav? It's a '71 4 door with 14" wheels. I'd like to lift the back up about an inch or so if I can.
: What brands would you recommend that will be inexpensive, but still grip and last for a while.
