What actual tyres though?
I run 265/45/16 on the back of mine.
I haven't found any shorter tyres that wide.
The rolling diameter is a killer.

Car looks awesome by the way.
Nice work!

love the colour! (not so sure about the tail light treatment though)
those fat arse wheels are the bomb, you can never have to much tire.

Totally reminds me of one i built a few years back.
[attachment=0]GREEN2.JPG[/attachment]
Digital cameras were just coming out back then, photo colour isnt great.
The colour in real life looks exactly the same as your pics.
It was Fiat Verde Green i think.

/45/16 and /50/15 are the same diameter.
Im sure youve done the calcs on them.
A 255/50/15 is almost 1" taller than your current 235.
I planned to run the suspension super low so it wasnt 4wd spec, but to get it anywhere near decent ride heigt it was bottoming the bump stops cut in half with 1200lb rear springs.
Its now 4wd spec :(
I also run r spec tyres as its a track car with 250+rwkw
