Ladies and Gents, I’m running 225/70r15 right now and getting new ones soon. I want wider tires without altering the profile. How big can I go on an 15x8 rally wheel without spacers or rubbing issues.
255/60s will fit all around most of the time but can be close up front to the front fender opening depending on your year... I use Discount Tire and they will mount 1 255/60 for me to take home and test fit in the front... my most recent 70 they just barely rubbed up front and I needed to go 245/60s
Perhaps see if your tire shop will mount one to test fit up front
Hello BB69,
If your 69 is a bb the clearance issue might be at the front because of a little more weight on the front suspension.
255/60/15 on a sb car.
Regards......
