Cool 1990 Mustang Lug and Tire Issue

My name is Tammy and my son owns a 1990 Mustang. We need to replace the rims (4 lug) and tires. What is the most economical rim/tire to get. Now has 245-60r-15. Does anyone know the lug size?

Default What Kind of Budget?

Reggie,
Thanks for the welcome. This is the issue: The tires are dry rotted, the vehicle pulls to the right, shakes terrible in the rear until you get a little speed on it, and it feels like the rear tires will fall off at any time. His father gave the car to him, but it is a death trap. I need to get it safe before it takes in on the road. This is very low budget, but I want the car safe.
Thanks.

sounds like you may just need new tires only.....

Thanks you'all. I keep saying that, but my son insists on the rims. I think he just wants to score some cool rims with my dime. You've been a great help.
