My slow and steady build of my jalopy!

Hey, so those are 275/60/15? On totally stock wheels right? running any spacers or anything? No rub?

I'm getting ET streets soon and I'm between 255/60/15 and 275/60/15.

Yes that's the tire size I have currently on the car with a stock rim. I did buy spacers just in case but there wasn't much too left on the bolt so I decided against it. The only rubbing I get is laterally going around corners at cruising speed. I just dropped the rear end 2in with DSE drop spring so I think I get a bit more rubbing around corners. There is a quarter of an inch and maybe a bit more clearence between the tire and frame rail. Good tire all around. Just liked the look of the taller tire.

Ok cool! Thanks for the input. I get slight rubbing now only on sharp corners and that is because my rear end suspension is sagging a little. I'll see what I end up going with.

I actually really like the stock wheels in black, looks mean.
 
Went to a local dynonday. Put up some decent numbers for my mods at 26ppunds. 293HP/352TQ. There should of been more, at least over 300. But it needs a good tune. Running rich. But still happy. Only muscle car out of all the imports! The people who owned the shop told me I was there hero for owning a buick and bringing it. I was the last to run and they weren't going to let me until I told them what car I had.

The numbers seem low to me considering your mods and 26lbs boost?

The car is awesome looking - looks a lot like mine! :)
Except I removed all the emblems.

Yeah it needs a tune and I felt like I should of been over 300 at the wheels. But it's a good starting point.
