I have a 95 gt vert with h&R race springs and tokico illumina. Can I run 315s in the rear? What would be the optimal wheel width? Also, Should I go with 17s or 18s

wider always looks better and ive always loved the look of 18's. are you tryin for look or performance?? most people will probably say 17x10.5" rear with a 315 tire unless you dont care THAT much then you can go for look and get like an 18x9 and a 275 in the back. all depends on what you want outta your car

Ive read that convertibles and hard tops have different sized wheel wells and that convertibles cant run as large a tire as a hard top. Anyone hear of that or know the limits?

Hmmm, never heard of that before. Only issue I've seen people had with the 315s is the quad shock getting in the way, which you can flip so they do fit.
