Tire fitment and suggestions for an air ride 68 Firebird

[firebirdzig]

Hey Guys, I've installed the level 2 air ride from ride tech on my 68 Firebird. The fenders were already rolled by the owner before me and I left them that way. I have 18 inch Forgeline wheels that i'm going to be running. I'm looking at a 245/18 in the front and a 275/18 in the rear. I'm looking to see if anyone has any suggestions on the tire size including the aspect ratio. Also what brand and style tire are people running on a car that will be used mostly for driving to work and trips up the hill to Tahoe? Not going to be using this for racing or much pro-touring but mostly cruising. Thanks in advance.

Assuming you have stock width rear end and disc brakes. What brakes are you running? 18x8 w/4.75bs up front and 18x9 w/5.25 rear with those tires (235-45/45, 275/40) is a pretty known combo on 67/8s. I ran 9" rears with 5.5bs on my 68 and even with rolled lips had some rubbing. The 9.5/5.5 works well on 69s because of the wheel well shape.
