of course they will.. I had a set of 245/50/16's on my 85 mounted on pony 5 stars..infact you can use 255's with very close tail pipe clearance..and with the right back spacing 275/50/15's like I got on my 85 now on a set of welds

well my 225's on the front scrub when i turn hard now. im not sure whats up with that (which is why i asked about the back ones) i think the springs are fatigued a little. also something happened to the car before i bought the car that was kinda riged up back into place.

i got 275/40(?)/17 on my bullitts, i get a slight rub on hard corners, or any corner that has an incline change (i/e turning right, front right wheel goes on an incline) it rubs on the inside, but its a raised spot, i need to hammer it out,
