Lightbulb Help with tire size

I have 6's & 7's now, and they will be replaced with a set of 7's polished up front & 8's in the rear. I have SC flares now. Any tire size and brand recomendations?

A search will yields volumes of information on this subject.

Having said that, 205s and 225s still work really well on 7s and 8s. Tire brand, etc., really is a function of your budget and needs...

Not sure if you want to roll your front fenders, but 225s could fit up front. You may need more negative camber also.

Not sure if SC flares are the same as my rears, but I have 8s with 245s. I also put 5mm (?) spacers in the rears and have some negative camber, but I think the set-up should work as long as your SC flares are the same... anyone out there know?
