Found these online they are very cheap $185 and have good ratings. But I have 98 GTS stock wheels and car is lowered with Eibach springs. Would they fit without any problems? I still have stock springs which I am thinking about putting back on, tired of scrapping every bump.

They may fit, but make sure you understand that a taller tire will cut down your rear axle ratio. For every inch more in tire height you loss .33 from your axle ratio. 3.08 - .33 = 2.75 = slower accelerating car.:usa:

Remember that Toyo, Nitto etc are actually smaller in width than say a PS2. Even tho they say 345 it's probably about closer to a 325. Been down this road before.
