Thread: Front skinnies

  1. #1

    Default Front skinnies

    Have the MT 26x7.5 15's on Centerline convo rims and the fronts lasted about 1500 miles, which was better than the rears but was curious if anyone knows some front skinnies that will fit my rims, that might last a little longer.

    Primarily a street car, but like the convo rims and drag radial look.

    KUHMO makes a set that last pretty low.

    I have a set of Nexen 165/80/15 on mine and they seem to be holding up pretty well.

    Ran both the Fedreral and Nexen on my '04, both lasted considerably longer than 1500 miles. Also had the Federals on my last '05, they wen't way over 10000 miles on that car (street driven, daily driver).

    Appreciate all the feedback and I'll check out the Federals, Kuhmo's and the Nexens.

    Any 165/80/15's will fill my Centerline rims, correct?

    They should fit just fine on a 3.5 or 4 inch rim. Mine are 3.5.

    Not sure the width of my rims, but also found some front skinnies on American Muscle that I think look decent as well.

    Here is the link.

    Any thoughts?
