Short time listener, first time caller - I have a stock 1985 2.0L, 2WD, manual, carb. Going to swap the engine, likely for a 2.3T Not looking to go bananas on HP, but probably more than necessary. I do not want to lift or lower the truck. I would like to improve the suspension for a better ride and potentially improve the brakes if that seemed necessary but that's it. However, I immediately need to change the tires out because they are questionable at best. Current tires are 205/75R14. Door calls for 185/75R14. What tires do I need to get? If I need a different tire, do I need to change out the wheels too? Personally I like the look but I also don't want to buy a whole new set of tires only to find out they're not a good fit for a souped up engine. Thank you!
