17 cars?!?!!!?!!

Those are the kind of people you usually want to buy something from- pretty good chance most of those cars don't get driven all the time and therefore are usually pretty low mileage.

If the wheel offset is stock or close enough to it, you shouldn't have any problem at all running those tires.

If the car was taken care of and you continue to do so, you shouldn't have any problem getting 250k+ out of that motor. There are, however, some weak links in the motor that you should be aware of and with 116k on the clock, they probably haven't been addressed yet. Namely, the cooling system (there are numerous threads on the forum as to what the issues there are, so I won't go into it), and smaller things like intake boots, crankcase valve, etc. Does it seem to run OK without misfires and does it make any sort of whistling/whining noises?

That's a pretty clean looking ti you got there...

Welcome!
