Exclamation Tire Sizes

I get a lot of PM's asking about tire sizing. "How big can I go?" "What's the closest thing to such and such size?" ETC...

Here's a couple of PDF files that break down some of the mystery.

First one is all the 14" options to fit your stock wheel
Second one is for "Plus Sizing" the wheels and tires.
I can do more if anyone needs a specific size.

That's a good question... I have never seen one. I know that I don't have access to one. I can dig around though.

I know this thread is kinda old but maybe someone will see it.
Will the 235 x 17's listed in the 2nd .pdf fit nicely on the '82 280ZX? No worries or necessary mods?
