I am contemplating what width tires to run or plan to run on my Oldsmobile 442.

I know that the roadster shop has a custom frame built for the A body to allow you to run bigger tires. I am just looking at the options to see what I can plan for. I have a 1968 olds 442 that is under the knife currently.

I think the Olds had the largest wheel wells of all the A-Bodies. A 305 should fit in the rear with some minor work at most and I have seen chevelles with 275 up front. I run 255/35/R18 up front and 305/35R18 in the rear of my 68 GTO.
