tis is a great site to know What can fit on your rims.. I thing the stock one for a 87 et 185x70R14



hope this help

Phone dial rims are 14", so that 215/60/15 doesn't seem right.

You should be able to run up to 205's in the front and 225's in the back with the stock offset. I wouldn't recommend putting too wide a tire on the stock phone dials though. I believe they are only 5.5" wide. I have 235's mounted for winter on one pair of phone dials and they are ready to pop off the friggin rim! :o

the stock gsl-se's used 205-60-14's on the same size wheels
