The 70-series is about 2" taller than the 60-series, roughly 26-1/2" versus 24-1/2".

The 225/60 would look lost in the wheel wells of a 71-73 My 71 with 225/70R14 tires.

But looks wise, magnums and factory steels look better with 70’s. Centerlines, Weld etc. always look better to me with 60’s (Now that you’re even more confused lol ) Last edited: Feb 18, 2024
