Second Opinion - Wheels and Tires

[Captain Morgan]

Looking at new wheels and tires. I have a 73 Coupe stock suspension now, at most might possibly go with a more modern setup in the front with coilovers down the road. I wanted to make sure that 15x8 with a 4.5” Bs will fit with 245/60r15 all around. Thanks!

Will definitely fit! Lots of room to go wider. Ryan

I could go with 15x10 and 275/55r15 on the rear but the highest backspacing I can get in the particular wheel is 5”. I’m not sure if that will stick out too far.

That looks incredible! That fitment is exactly what I’m going for. Thank you both! I’ll post pictures when I get them.

These are 255/60/15 on original 7x15 Magnum 500s. Those are the same rims once painted black and once hidden behind stock hub caps and aftermarket trim rings. 

But the suspension is lowered a lot!

Those are beautiful! Love the “stance.”
