Jim;



When we talked in Vegas, you had asked about my tire & wheel combination, and

I could not remember my tire sizes..........I just use my relatively

inexpensive American Racing wheels and decent radials rather than the campys

and Arrivas I took off the car.



Well, my rear tires are Goodyear Eagle gatorbacks, 255/60 VR15s; and the

fronts are only 195/60 VR15s -- Eagles, too, but not Gatorbacks.  The fronts

are probably too narrow for best performance, and I'll probably go wider when

these wear out.  This combo seems to ride and track quite well, and as you'd

expect, way better than the old Arrivas.
