ya just wondering cause the guy i got tires off of said that the fronts were 16 and backs were 17 but neither had rubber on em and every where i call says they only have one listing for the tire size for them and that is 255/50 zr16 but front and back cant be same size since they are roughly and inch thicker in the back

Mine's an '87 and I'd be happy to check for you, but for some reason I think there's a minor difference in width between the '85 and '87.... would you like me to check anyways for you?
