    Tire Size

    Hi Again!
    I have the 15" Halibrand wheels and wonder what size tires others have used to ensure clearance on the 289. I have the IRS rear with 2015 brakes and standard brakes in front. Thanks

    Hi John,
    I have the exact same setup. I went with Cooper Cobras, as narrow as recommended in front (235s) and as wide as possible in back (275s).
