I've found that according to Automobile-Catalog (1984 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Sedan 5.0L V-8 automatic overdrive tire sizes (since September 1983 for North America U.S.)) These Yokohama AVID Ascends work:

225/65 R 16 - 1.6% Larger than OEM - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....6ASC&tab=Sizes

225/60 R 17 - 2.0% Larger than OEM - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....7ASC&tab=Sizes

I also found this size works but these AVID Ascends offered are not 215s, They're P215s.

215/55 R 18 - 0.9% Larger than OEM - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....8ASC&tab=Sizes

Got suggestions?
