General Buick Tech / Re: Which Size Rear Tires?

« on: November 10 2023, 09:32:37 AM »

I'm done with Buicks, as more and more Buick vendors are refusing to ship up here...and you're right...the parts prices are beyond stupid. Took Joe ages to get the parts to rebuild that S2 engine I took down to Montreal and back for a customer. If this guy wants to race this car it'll be here in the spring for line lock, rear brakes and suspension for launching. Hartline is doing the XFI for it. Joe ran 9.20's with doing nothing with Cals tune. His car is a monster. He had it sold, but the guy backed out at the last second. Like you, he's ready to get out.

Dave, the definitive bible for these cars for tires is on this vid. The 255/60/15 is what you're looking at. MT sells them as a DR. Height is 27 inches and fits perfectly on the stock rim. Time stamp is 8:30. If you're gonna hit the track 1 last time and wanna set your best ET and MPH, then grab a 112 race chip from Eric and I'll put it on the back bumper for ya. Gotta get up to Uxbridge as I have a cousin up there. Hope all's well.

P.S- Just got back from my engine builder from Montreal with a S2 engine for a customer in Toronto.

Dave, with the amount of time you posted here and over there, you coulda slid underneath it and pulled the lower rad hose loose and let some antifeeze out of it, swapped the thermostat and been doing burnouts up and down your street.

By your posting, I figured weather had to be fake news and something else caused it that was being covered up

If the MSM says that heart attacks and hospitilizatio ns are happening to marathon runners and the weather caused it, then that's good enough for me.

So what was the real cause?

Didn't you read it...the weather.
