255/55's on the back of a stock 88 LX ?

[Eighty8LX50]

Whats up, I want to put 255/55's on the back of my stock standing 88 LX and dont know if it will fit. I heard taking off the quad shocks give you more room, But does that effect my suspension at all ? Has anybody put this size of tire on the back ? Will the 255/55s rub ? I am using 16" pony rims.

You should not rub. I havn't had quads for 2 years.

it won't rub.......but you're wasting your time with those tires IMHO. anything bigger than 245/50/16 is not going to have a flat contact patch so the added width is actually hurting you. JMHO

I was going to go with 245/50's but the used tire place had worn ass tires in that size, But had a nice pair of 255/55's. I can wait for their new inventory coming in this week for some 245/50's I think.
