I just bought a set of these from Ken. What is the ideal tire size? I've got a '91 Carat model. Does 215/65-15 sound right?

Thanks for the wheel weight tip, Chris...

dont put wheel weights on the inside lip (typical crimp on rim style) of the front wheels....they come incredibly close to the control arm (i had to remove one of the front wheel weights, because it was hitting the control arm) use the stick-on wheel weights inside the rim instead..
