Fits with no mods, just need the correct wheel.

I have 295x50x15 on the Rallye wheel 15x8 with standard offset on my '70 GTX - probably exactly the same wheel house clearance as yours. No issues at all....except a telltale rub mark up the top when some fat bastards sat in the back.

295 50 15's. 8" rim. No offset. Factory. Smidgeon of scrub inside left on leaf spring on track day only. Solved with spacer. 69 Coronet R/T.

Had a set of 305's on my Charger with no mods, they were on 10" wide rims. They were actually a friends who has them on a 69 RR, I'll be putting 305's on mine next time around. The rim is the trick, has to have the right offset (backspacing) which should be zero offset or 5" backspacing on a 10" rim.

I have M/T 28 x 12.5 x 15 tires mounted on 10" rims with a 5-1/2" offset. The fit in my 69 RR with about 1/4" clearance at the tub. They clear everywhere else.

A 295 tire is only 11.75" wide so clearance should not be an issue
