OK, I know this has been talked about before but are there any current updates ( 2016 ) on tires for the rear? I know we can not get the 235's any more so what is everyone using? Thanks all.

You can 235's all day long from tirerack.com. Im running a set of BF Goodrich's Radial T/A's on mine and just ordered another set for a friends DeLorean not long ago. Its a very popular tire.

Factory sizes not being avaliable is not a problem. Matching front and rears are the problem.

No and that's a completely different tire. Look up BF Goodrich radial T/A in 235-60 R15

Yes sir that is the one but you have it set at 245 and not 235 unless you're trying to go for a slightly wider Tire then that would be okay but yep that's the one that I have and two of my close friends with DeLorean's have 😄

I have 245/50/R15 on the rear but they do not make those tires anymore, My Delorean is lowered so they look stock.

Okay and I didn't know you actually did have that size. Yeah I might be one of those Oddball size tires but this is as close as you can get.

Thanks for all the information. This would be the stock tire for the rear right?

Sure no problem and I'm glad to help out and yes, 235 60 R 15 as for the rear and 195 60 R14 for the front. 30psi air pressure for the rear and 23 psi air pressure for the front 😄
