frankiblu Jan 29th, 10, 2:55 PM I have a 66 chevelle with 15x7 rallys after reading some of these posts i am thinking about putting 255x60x15 on the rear should fit with no problems. and i dont know about the fronts thinking maybe 225x60x15 but i like the same size tire all around will the 255 fit in the front?? i definatly want wide in the back the heckler Jan 29th, 10, 3:05 PM I think the 255 will scrub the inner fender on the front. I run 235-60-15's all around on my 67ss with no conflicts. I use 15 x 8 rallys.....have heard up to 275 will fit in the rear and I definately need a set !! stalksweet Jan 29th, 10, 4:49 PM well i have 225/60r15 on the front and 255/60r15 on the back on 15x7 rims... i wanna get 15x8 rims and 23560r15 on the front and 27560r15 on 15x8 inch rims on the back... so kevin, your front doesnt rub at all?? stock suspension??? and vincent, i was told 235 on 15x8s wouldnt fit on the front,(i have a 1967 chevelle) but it does matter what kind of suspension you have.... frankiblu Jan 30th, 10, 7:17 AM jacob i think you can do the 235x60x15 in the front on your 15x7 rims and just get 15x8 rims in the back i want to do the same in the back but i have the 15x7 rims already. cuisinartvette Jan 30th, 10, 10:54 AM Use 4.5 BS on the rear.I put 15x8 with 265/50/15 in front, should be close. (4.5" BS front and rear , rears are 275/50/15 and tuck up in there perfect. 15x7 up front with 235/60/15 will give you no issues ran that tire for years. I have a very large aftermarket swaybar that occasionally turning lock to lock would touch but never caused an issue. PickSS Feb 1st, 10, 4:14 PM Vincent I have 15X8 up front with 4.5 BS and a 245/60/15 tire and 1" lowering springs....no rubbing issues. Out back I have 15X8 with 5.0 BS do to a 70 chevelle rear..it's 1" wider than a stock 66, with 275/60/15 tire and 1" lowering springs. I drive this car hard and have zero rubbing issues. It's all about the backspacing (BS) when it comes to wheels and tires. See picks in signature. | ||
