Ok time for new wheels and tires for the 69' bee. I have the rears in 295/50/r15 so what size tire would be a good size for the fronts.

Depends on the rim, on my 68 I'm running 15x7 with 235/60 tires
I have not got the wheels yet so I could go with size needed for the tire
My '69 Bee is running 15x7 with 225/70 tires. Kind of wish I went with the 225/60 tires for the lesser height.
I am running 295/50/15's on the back of my Charger. Went with 245/60/15's on 7" rims on the front. They are about 3/8" smaller diameter than the 295's and are a perfect combo imo.
Thanks that's the info I was looking for. What offset did you go with on the front wheels?
I went with 4 1/8" backspace.
15x10s with 325/50/15s in back and 15x4.5 front with MT sportsmans 26" but think I'm going to change to 28s
Bad ***!
The engines not in in this pic so the nose will drop about 2"

I'm old school. 
I kept the 14" Rallyes on the front and have 225/70/14 tires on them, and went with 15" on the back.

Be a baller. Go big.
I run 18x9s up front with a 275-40-18 Nitto NT01 road course tire, 200 TW. rears are 18x10 with a 295-45-18. If you want to turn corners, you need wider tires. If you just want to cruise or drag race, most dudes seem content with a 225-70-15 on a 6 inch rim.
