I have a set of 71 ss rims and was wondering what normal radial tire size would be good?
Thanks, Bob

P245R15 BFG TA's are nice. 255 can go on back, maybe 265. Look for a pic of Stan's yellow 71 in the carofthemonth section.

What is the size of the rims and backspacing? I have a set of 15x7 Rally wheels with 4 or 4 1/2" of backspacing and I have 275/60/15 rear, 255/60/15 front tire sizes. No problems at all. I would actually like to go to 275/60s in the front like I used to have, but have to wear these out first!

good luck,
Bill C.
