I wanted to ask for recommendations for front tire size, for my 70 road runner. I have just installed the 11.75" rotors and purchased a set of (4) 15" mopar cop rims for the car, to replace the 14" magnums that were on it. The rear has 275 60 R15 tires, the front does not yet have tires mounted.

I wanted to instal 225 50 R15 on the front, but thought Id ask what other B Body owners have used. Any tips appreciated,

Jon

225/60/15 will be almost 2.5 inches shorter than your rears. Depends on what look you want. I have 275/60/15 rear-225/70/15 front on one of my road runners and 255/60/15 rear-245/60/15 front on my other one. Each combination has the rears about .5 inches taller than the fronts. I think each looks good but just my opinion.

Yeah it depends on the look your after, I've run 245/60/15's on the front of my Coronet,w/a 15x7" rim,also a 235/60/15, the 245/60/15 will match your rears a little better.
