Lol I literally did this myself when I was looking for wheel /tire sizes. I looked like a weirdo taking pictures but it was worth it.

i currently have 15x8 basset race wheels on my 65 with 255 60 15 on the rear. the wheels have a 5 inch backspacing on them, the tire is REALLY close to the leaf springs on the driver side however no rub on the fender or leafs

Gawd damn I ordered a set of 17x9 225/45 hopefully they fit

Great video. I have a Black 1965 Coup with Magnum 500 15 X 7 with 15 x 60 x 235, no roled fenders. I love the chrome on the black. But I noticed that 15 inch tires are being phased out. The Scott Drake alumiium repo Magnum 500 17 x 7 are ok. I mean ok, because they don't have all th curves that make this wheel pop. And they are $224 each rim no tire, ouch. So thanks for the video. I might look arounf for something that I might like and have better choices of tire sizes.

Great info bro I take pics all the time

Solid video man, I have a 67 mustang coup, and I have 215/70 r14 cooper cobras on the front, and 225/70 r14 copper cobras on the back. The front tires rub on the top of the wheel and the inside of the fenders when going over bumps and uneven roads or taking sharp turns. I keep getting mixed answers on what kind of size would work for a raised white letter tire on the market for my front and back keystone r14 wheels.

I'm trying to get negative offset in the rear of my 68 mustang. I want wide rear tires with some poke. I've got 245 45 r17 right now with stock rear leaf suspension. How do these guys get that slight rear lift and 1 inch poke??? I notice it looks like you have taller leaf spring shakles??

Hey cool guy, was wondering if your front tire size is 225/60/15 or 225/70/15?

[trappa]

Great looking car bro.. do u think your 255’s would have fit on the front too ?

[MotorCityMuscleClassicCars]

I have a 65 fast back and want to put 17x7 rims in front and 18x8 rims in the back. What are the largest/widest tires I can put on these size wheels? Thx

Love your car. I too have a 1968 coupe, and I'm looking for a wheel/tire package. I actually want almost exactly what your setup is.. Thinking I'll paint it a metallic gray with those black wheels. I'd like to do 15x7's all around, 255/60/15 in back, 225/60/15 in front. My question, do the rear tires fit without rolling the fender any? I have a totally stock setup. Thanks!

Will this tire setup work with a Shelby drop without modification?

You think thats bad! I am trying to find the specs of a tire I have on my car right now, so I wrote the manufacturer. They came back and told me they do not have the specs for it, and tried to give me another tires specs. Mickey Thompson sucks! I have a pair of their G70-14 mickey thompson 70 indy profile seris tires, and I do not want to change the transmission gear for my speedometer in getting new wheels. They do not even know their tires. I was thinking about getting rear discs, so I would have to go up to 15 or higher tires.

Can you please add a link to those rims? Are front and back the same rims?
