I am going to install Magnum wheels and could use your help. I plan to use 15x7x 4.25"BS with 235r60 on the front and 15x8 x 4.5"BS with 275r60 in the rear. Has anyone installed this or a larger rear set without turning the fender-well lip under or rubbing on the inner wheel house? I am running stock ride height. I do not know the different Mopar models well enough to know if what works on a Charger or Super Bee will work on a Roadrunner. What are your 1970 Roadrunners riding on?
 
That tire/wheel combination is popular on B-bodies and will fit fine. Some people go with a 225/70/15 on the front to better match the height of the 275's on the rear.
 
View attachment 119866View attachment 119867My car has those sizes on it now, 235 60-15 and 275 60-15
I would go with 245 60-15 in front instead of the 235.

245 60-15 mimics a F 60-15 which was the factory upgrade on these cars.
I got my setup in a package deal and will oneday swap out the fronts for the 245 myself.

I have 15 x 10 rears with 5" bs .5-.75 clearance both sides with a 325 50 15 I would say this is the max size foe street. Maybe a little to close if your a road racer. But for straight line performance it's the ticket. Thats for rears. I run 15 x 4-5's up front for the pro street look
