72Monte_Timmy Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hey Guys, I was wondering what size tires you guys are running with no clearance issues. I am planning on running BF Goodrich Tires (Rear 275 R60-15) (Front 235 R60-15) with classic Cragar S/S wheels. I am planning on (15 x 8 on rear) and (15 x 7 up front). I'm not sure what to get for back spacing. The factory rally wheels back spacing measure 3 7/8" backspacing but it looks like Cragar only offers a 2.5", 4", or 4 1/4" back spacing. Do you guys have any idea which one would work without rubbing? The car does have Gabriel Air Shocks. I really like the old school fat back tire look. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry M Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Go to the Suspension tech column and everyone has listed their tire and rim combo's. I actually have 255R70 on mine with stock rallys and the back ones are no problem but the fronts are another story. But they are big and fat.

Thanks We are running that exact combo, standard spacing, no issues....Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nygel Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I have that same setup on mine too. Right down to the 15x7 ande 15x8 Cragar SS's. Love the ride and the look. Nygel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
