My impression is that that is only for dog dish/poverty caps, as they use a 14" OE wheel centre. Full size hubcaps like our spinners for 14" wheels have nothing to grip onto in a 15" rim.
The method I used is the only way I found it could be done and worked out very well. Stock appearance but...
Yep I did, after I saw this -

I went about it in a different way to suit what I had, but outcome was the same.
For the front, 225 or 235/70/15 tyres are a closer match in height than 235/60/15 to the 275/60/15 rears. (Unless of course you want larger rear height for a little rake.)
I have nothing to add as far as which tire to go for, but suggest you keep in mind what changing your tire height will do to your effective rear gearing. From a 28" to 30" rear tire will make your gearing "taller" by around 7%. i.e. 3.55s with 28" tire effectively becomes 3.30s with 30" tire...
Check the link Sonny - I don't have dog dishes, but full size hubcaps... I got the idea from here - http://imperialclub.org/Repair/Wheels/convert/index.htm
For 1962 Dodge Polara 500
Can I fit a 15 x 8 wheels without any modifications on the rear? Yep, with 4.5" back space.
And I'm thinking 15 x 7 on the front. Yep also.
Also what would be the widest tires I can fit with no issues? 275/60-15 rear, 225/70-15 front work well together as they...
Don't turn as tight and use accelerator to induce oversteer :icon_wink:
I have same size on my 62 Dart and they rub all over the place... I just turn up the sound (i.e. exhaust)
Well here's my :booty:
I would also consider Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/T. I like mine, and reportedly more grip than BFG T/A. (Of course only important to those that buy tires to grip the road - as opposed to converting into smoke).
