I gave you all this information last time. These cars have no problems with 245 60-15 front and 275 60-15 rear if you want the staggered look. Or 245 60-15 on all four corners. As long as you ordered 15x7 with the 4 1/4 backspace.
Factory option was F 60-15 and the 245 60-15 is close to that. Also if you want it to look factory scuff the new wheels and shoot the backside with a semi-gloss Black and the front with either Totally Auto's Ralley Wheel Silver paint or the Mopar Performance paint. After the Black is sprayed on backside you shoot front and let whatever over spray that gets on the Black stay. Ron

255/60/15 would be what you want on the rear. I personally like to go with 225/70s on the front, 235/60s would look good too.

Hi, Ron. I bought the new rims I could not find our old posts that's why I asked the question again. One quick question for you. What do you not like the 235s on the font and why do you like the 245s? They both look good in different pictures of other people's cars.
