Default slicks for 15x7s
Hey guys,

I am ordering slicks and am wondering what the best size for my wheels are (15x7s). Mods are FWI, H-pipe/catback, tuner, 4.10s. Will 26x8.5x15 do the job? Will 28"ers fit? I am lowered on H&Rs. I'd like to hear your opinions before I buy a set. Thanks.

Matt

How much are you lowered? I would prolly stick with 26ers.

the 26x8.5x15's are perfect for that wheel.
