Changing to diff size rims

I'm going to be changing rims on the 73 and currently have 14x6 (Tires 215x70) While I was going to replace them with 14x6, can I go with 15x7 and what size tires to keep the speedometer/odometer the same?

I have 15x7 with 215/60 on front and 225/60 back, the speedometer is correct.

HMMMMM???

215/60 15x 7 not a choice with Mustang Unlimited with their magnum 500 tires package.

Here is a link to a link that should help you.

You will need to key in on the "gear/tire" in your case.

Mine are 16 x 7 ordered from Tire Rack and fit fine. I did change out the gauge cluster and had to calibrate the new speedo.

I do things backwards, especially in regards to wheels.

I start with the tires I want, find the size that is available, and then get wheels to match the tires.

The reason for this is "good" tires are getting difficult to find in the 14 and 15 inch sizes...unless you like Goodrich. But even they may not make tires in this size range for much longer.

As a result, you might want to consider stepping up to 16 or 17 inch wheels.

Some guys go bigger, but I think a 17 is a good balance for our cars and the suspensions we have, especially if you are a daily driver.

Finally ready to order and just want to confirm that the speedo and odom won't be screwed up.

Going from 215/70x14 to 225/60x15

This is for all four tires.

Thanks
