Just incase you didn't know, you are going to feel every single freekin bump with those tires. The lower the profile, the more u road bumps u feel. It becomes a harder ride.

Low profile tires are like dating a hollywood starlite. Enjoy the ride will you can, hehe.

Seriously, I've been rolling on theses tires up and down, and across the greater part of the USA since 2004. My other tires are no different at 275/30/20.

Just for giggles. I was riding shotgun with Chuck in his widebody. Chuck is rolling 315 in the rears. I asked Chuck about his feeling regarding those thin lizzy tires. The dude was smiling ear-to-ear and didn't care. The sticky grip and handling outweighed any negetive feelings he had.

These are mine. TSW's with Nitto Neo Gen 225/45ZR17's. Tires probably won't last too long, but super sticky!

Thanks, it's a place called KAL TIRE - it's just a service station in Calgary. I had to kill an hour waiting for them to check an air leak on my Fiero's winter set, so i played with their custom wheels software

Aww hell - I'll jump in a mega-old thread. Pick them up used - someone else did all the work, so I take none of the credit:

1988 Formula, Eibach lowering springs, KYB suspension, poly everywhere


Team Dyamics 90 Motorsport wheels, custom widened in the rear by about 2"


Fronts - 225/40ZR17


Rears - 295/35ZR18


It flushes out the rear quite nicely!


And as Madcurl said - you feel *every* bump in the road. Reflectors feel like the Grand Canyon when you hit them, but the "wow factor" far outweighs it all.

I thought these were nice when I got them. Now I'm not so sure, but I have to live with them.

Sorry, I don't have a better picture.

I had these wheels on my '87 black SE. They looked really good and I got lots of compliments. That car was totaled and I sold the practically new wheels and tires. Depending on what my next Fiero is running on, I may buy them again. They are still available from VSR. #13 on their website. No price information available there. Sorry, but I cant post a pic here. I'm too old to get it.
