Pecosbill, the tires are Diamondback Classics on Firestone Indy 500 cores. 225/70R-14. They fit nicely on the 14x6 wheels. If your wheels are 14x5, the 225 may be a little too wide. You'd probably be better off with a 215 or 205 width. On my car the 225's fill the front out nicely. The rear, with the narrow 64 rear axle looks like it needs more width to me. The rake on my car is achieved by using 1-1/2" taller rear springs custom made. The fronts, incorrectly identified in the article as shorter, are actually stock. The 1-1/2" rear lift changes the stock 3/4" higher front rake to a 3/4" higher rear rake. I like the old school raised rear rake.
Good luck finishing yours up. Ron

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
