Thank you for all the advice. The tires came in. They look much better than the old ones. Even though the wheels are in the air the car is resting on the axles in these pictures.

Front:
215/70/15 - 26.9" diameter 6.5" tread width
Back
255/60/15 - 27.1" diameter 8.5" tread width

My dad rolled the inside of the fenders many years ago. There are 5 leaf springs on, I don't know how many it came with. They may not work, if they don't I will exchange them for something smaller. We are probably about a month away from driving it I think, so we will know more then. I will put some people in the back seat and go over some bumps and transitions into driveways, etc.

Anyone know how to get water spot stains off the wheels? They came back from the tire shop really stained and it's not coming off.
