aasltmike Registered User Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 14	Wanting to change to a different tire size I have a 1993 Thunderbird LX with the OE rims from the factory, the 7 spoke silver magnesium alloy rims. The factory specs call for a 215/70R15 tire on it. I was wondering if I would have any problems going to a 225/60R15 tire on it or if it's even a good idea.
