66 Belvedere Wheels and Tires

[TonyB]

Looking to put Steel wheels on Belvedere. Rear wheels now fill the fender wells without rubbing. Would like to keep the same look on the rear. Any ideas on size of wheels and offset with your recommendation on tire size front and rear?

I've got BFG's P245R15s on front and back with '70s era Cravats.

I had steel rim on my car 15 x 7 & i had 275/60/15 in the back fit good.

For the rear 15x8 with a 4.75" BS will work and that's about the max. 15x7 on a 4.25" BS is an easy fit (factory Chrysler wheels). 15x8 with 4.375" BS will rub the outer wheel well on turns. Tires on the 8's were 255 60 and on the 7's 235 70.
