Hello All,

Looking for some feedback.. I have a 67 GTX here at the house I've been fixing/modifying for a friend. He wishes to go to 15x7 magnum 500's which I have. Looking for a good tire size for the car. I have always put 255/60R/15's on my Mopars and they looked great. He wishes to get redline radials and those aren't as plentiful in supply as tires like BF Goodrich, Coopers, etc. So, what about tires like 225 or 235/60R/15's or something in the XXX/70R/15 realm... Any pictures of your examples would be greatly appreciated from a visual point of view..

Cheers,
Troy

225s will be too skinny on a gtx imo. But my 67 would only fit a 255 without rubbing.

Been extremely hard to find redlines,, Ended up getting 4.. We'll see what they look like when installed...
