Tire Size

[1e9kalkid]

My 1970 2800 CS currently has 215 60 R15 tires on the stock wheels for that year. That seems a bit wide to me, what size do any of you use for that year and model?

hmmm, errr ... did you mean 14's? all coupes came stock with 14" wheels. as i remember, stock size on a 2800cs was 195/70 - 14 i actually have staggered 16's so my memory might be off oh, and several glasses of wine might have contributed to that state.

I hate to say it, but more than 12 and you have to question whether you have a problem.
