Yeah the guy I bought the wheels from didn't understand that 215 60s are smaller in diameter than 215 70s. I am going with 255/60s rear and 215/70s on front. Those tire sizes are .1 different in diameter, with the rear larger.

Yeah I agree, the 50 series tires today are way too low profile, back in high school we just had like A-Z, then the series, and then rim size. Now its all technical
