Re: [Chevelle-List] 70 SS wheels and tires size

[Jeff Fischer]

I did this setup using Cragar SS rims with larger rims/tires on the rear and thinner onthe front. Used 15x7's on the front and 15x8's on the rear. Tires are Kelly Chargers, front - P215/70R15
 rear - P275/60R15

You can see pictures of this setup here: http://home.attbi.com/~addss/chevelle.html  and a larger pic here: http://home.attbi.com/~addss/ss-side2.jpg

I bought a 70 Chevelle SS 454.  I have the stock 14" rims, but would like to put the 15 inch Cragar SS 5-spoke mags on it.  What width rims and tires would you recommend.  I would like to go wider on the back without altering the wheel wells.  What brand of tire looks/works well for the street?
 
Thanks.
