Max 15" tires on a 1986 MC
Ok i had a buick regal before my Monte, someone had 4 15" brand new tires so i swapped them to my Regal and it was a bad mistake, everytime i hit a bump the tires would hit the wheel wells and when i made a full turn the would scrape etc.....
Well, my boss has a 68 Camaro and he wants it stock so he said i can have the 5 star chromes that are on the car now but im worried that scraping will be the issue with the Monte, so my question is what is the max size of 15" rims i can put on it?

You can measure the offset, height, and width of the ones you have on it now and compare them to the new ones, or just bolt them on and see how they fit. Thats probably what I would do, cuz I'm more of a visual person than a mathematician.
