finding that right tire size......

Hey guys,

So I did some searching on the forum and found some good info. but I didn't find anything about 255/60R15 on 15x7 rims for the front of my 71 skylark. Will that size rub?
I had my eyes set on 245/60R15. Seen a bunch of guys liking that set up.

Thanks,
David

 

I ran 255/60R15's on all four corners of my 71 Stage 1 on 15x7 wheels. The front would sometimes rub at full lock on uneven pavement. When they did, I would just back off from full lock a little. Never had a problem in normal driving.

 

Thanks for the info. I figured it may rub slightly on turns with bumps

 

I will have fresh springs, so I believe the tires will do fine.
Thanks for the input

 

How about 255R60 on the rear & 245R60 on the front?

 

I want to keep it the same all the way around. Easier to rotate and just keep it simple.

 

Use the 255's all around.

 

Here's my Skylark with 255/60/15s all the way around. Been on the car 12 years and never rubbed.
