    Don't know the brand. They were on the car when I bought it, but I'm sure they are not real Centerlines.
    Front - 175/65/14
    Rear - 265/50/15

    Ford Magnums ... front are factory 15x7s with 195/60/15s
    Rears are Wheel Vintique 15x8.5 (iirc) with 265/50/15s

    I will probably switch to something more like 205/70/15s on the front to fill the wheelwell better, and make a couple of minor suspension changes to tweak the stance.
