 :shruggy: Guys.  Working on my Bird clone I would like to know what wheel and tire size works and looks best.  I want to use the ralley wheels with a white letter tire.  ( I know this is probably on the site listed a million times, but I kinda suck at searching).  WHAT LOOKS BEST FELLAS?  Thanks in advance. :popcrn:

Do the 255's rub up front in turns?


I prefer to run a non-staggered set (front and rear tires are the same size) so they can be rotated.  All three of our cars run 245/60/15's to keep the spare tire count to a minimum.  If the 255's clear, I'd run them as the 245 seems just a bit small to me.

I have run 255/60/15's on all of my B-bodies without issue............... I have run 15x8's all the way around on my Daytona with a 4.5" backspacing. I have 15x8's Grand National with a 4.0" up front and they do stick out a wee bit more than I like ( rub the fender on the top wheel opening and that's not good )........

No, it doesn't rub!    :2thumbs:
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?
