What do you mean by gen 2 though? Interested and can have them gone on Saturday, just want to make sure they fit.

What size BFGs?

Yeah. Too bad the C2s were 63-67, and the C3's were 68-82. :mrgreen:

All the way from the 'Stan and he scores a win!

Yup ^^^ those are the rims mounted on the C3 Vette pictured above. No centercaps.

I think the BFGs are 275 width but it's been years since I ran them. They're seriously past useful life.

edit: corrected to C3 Vette, thanks for the fix.

If you could check the size that would be awesome. I've been looking for a set of 255/xx/15s to do some measurements, and already mounted is a huge help.

You don't want to run these tires. They're used up.

Not gonna run them. I assure you. I want to maximize the size tire I can safely run on my Nova and I don't want to pay to mount/dismount tires, or buy the $500 Mount Mate to check. I've done the ruler stuff, and the WheelRite deal and neither were exact enough. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm busting your balls. Not my intent.

I'll check tonight and post if nobody grabs them in the meantime.

Thanks

They're gone, but I checked the numbers. They were 275 and the rims were factory 15x8 rims, mounted up just fine.
