Nothing wrong with the 225's PROVIDED THAT the car is used for moderate passenger car operation. For high speeds above 45 or 50 mph and for heavier loads than just 2 or 3 passengers on a sunday cruise to the local country club then the 235's would be better.
I'm running the 235's on my 56 Executive. HOWEVER, there is some very minor scrub on the rear inner fender wells that occur under rough terrain operation and they run much closer to front fenders on lock to lock steering than what is desireable. But just enuf clearence.

Also, be sure to get the SEVENTY_FIVE's. NOT 70's or 65's or anything smaller than the 75 aspect ratio.

Thanks for the info. I can get these new /used at my local tire place, right? If so, what kinda ball park cost? I'm kinda thinking that i want the "medium" sized white stripe.

How does the 815/915 compare in size to the 225x75x15 or 235x75x15? My tires say 815 But I'm sure I'm only gonna be able to get radials.
