I grabbed a pair of Nankang SP-9's with a 560AA UTOG, V-rated(149 mph). Walmart seems to have the lowest price on them.
The rears never rub. It used to have a 1 inch lowering block, but I've since removed it. I'm running a pair of passenger side 3200 lbs SS springs, rear sway bar and Koni's.
I do run a set of properly adjusted slapper bars to keep the front spring segment from bending on launch, as the car weighs in at 3700 lbs without me in it. It also has just over 500 ft lbs of torque at the rear wheels. Standard A-body 8 3/4 rear end from Dr Diff, and 8 inch rear rims.
I did roll the rear fender lip and trimmed the lower 8 inches of my front fenders due to running adjustable strut rods, which can pull the lower control arm forward to gain caster. Mine has around 4.5 positive caster even with the rear sitting about an inch above the 28 inch tall rear tires. The lower picture show the previous 215/60-15's on the wider than stock front rims. As mentioned, I bumped up to the next size of 225/60-15.
