    215/70/15 on a 5” wheel?

    I have 205/75/15's for front runners and they can be mounted on 5 inch wheels per manf. specs. The taller sidewall allows it (and fills the wheel well). So you might want to look at a taller ratio tire for the skinny fronts. Your challenge is going to be finding one radial tire that is offered...

    Calculating expected rpm/speed for 3.23 stick gears

    ...to solve for speed given the same variables. The info you gave me was perfect to estimate how far off the Speedo would be with different tire sizes - replacing stock F14s with the 255/60 15s on it now. The answer, not much difference at all. So for what I am doing it was what I was looking...

    best tire combo? 275/60/15 rear.. 235/60/15 looks short for front.

    9” section width or tread width? 235 is the tread width 50 - 60 -70 is the aspect ratio. The sidewall height of 50 series is 50% of tread width or. 60 series is 60%, 70 is 70% Section width is the sidewall bulge on the recommended rim width There’s all kinds of tire dimension charts on...

    71-72 b-body street cars...what are you running for tire/wheel sizes

    Just wondering what the combo's are for a 72 gtx. Going with steel mopar rallye wheels. I was leaning towards 15x6 in the front, 15x7 rear. In other body styles, I've run a 235/60 up front, or a 225/70. Rears 255/60 or 275/60. Whatcha running?

    Tremec TKX 5-Speed Conversion

    Tremec have got a handy calculator online for working out ratios and rear ends / tire sizes. This morning I created this rough comparison for my set up - I want to cruise at about 2,600rpm as that's where the cam will be working, and I usually shift at 5,000rpm at the track.

    That's almost the perfect stance for my tastes. Not too jacked-up in the *** and a bit lowered in the front. What tire sizes are you running?

    6" rims all around...who has them?

    Whos running 15x6" rims all around? What backspacing are you running and what size tires? I can't seem to get a good answer on rim sizes...I don't want 8" rims and I can't find a good 15x7 with a 4.25 backspace. I don't want to have to worry about rubbing in the rear. I'd like a taller tire...

    16” wheels on b body?

    17" are more expensive, than 15" or even 16" 16" are very limited in tires selections/options & *getting a proper sidewall profile of a taller tire, is more difficult with the 17" too IMO there's almost nothing worse than a rubber band tire on an older muscle car, looks like :carrot: Yes it...

    69 Charger on the autocross

    275/50-15's both front and rear and running nitto 555r2 tires. They stick like crazy but you have to get used to the delayed turn in response. My steering box is factory and it has some typical slop. It's all muscle car. Nothing real trick about it. Even has 4 wheel drum brakes which are working...

    1967 Dodge Coronet R/T factory rear ride height

    I ran air shocks in the day for tire clearance. Usually about 40-50 psi. This was from 67-71. I also ran 90-100 psi at the strip for bigger slicks. Never a rear cross member problem. Stock ride height originally covered approximately 3/4" of the top of the rims. Personally the look I like is...

    F70/14 and G60/14 equivalents sizes in today's tires

    Looking to get raised white letter tires to replace my 47 year old tires. After 51 years the bodywork and paint are done and I am getting close to installing the engine and trans which is the last things to do. No way am I going near the road with these tires. The tread width of my G60-14 is 8...

    215/70/15 on a 5” wheel?

    They are out there ... Hercules, Toyo, Hancook and a few others. Just make sure they are "trailer" tires as most in that size range are. You want a tire with at least a 97S rating. Mine are Hancook. 205/75R15 28" tall to go on a 69 B body. These are pretty much the same height as what came on...
