I couldn't go much wider on an 8" rim. They are 245/45's up front and 275/40's in the rear.
Looks good. I have a 72 that was originally that color combination. Upper two-tone molding was removed sometime during it's life due to a right quarter panel collision repair. When I bought it, it was solid blue. But, I while I was doing some body work on it, I discovered the old paint scheme.

Don't know......didn't drive it yet. I put them on just to take the pics. I am getting the front end lined up this Tuesday. The shop I go to said that I should keep the old wheels on due to no wheel lip on the new ones. Plus, I don't want 'em scratched by accident. It should handle pretty well. I have urethane bushing throughout the suspension and a rear sway bar.
