Title: What wheel/tire combo are you guys running?
Post by: ahawes on July 11, 2006, 08:44:41 PM
I am just curious as to what size wheels and tires you guys are running? I love the wide centerline wheels with big tires look. Thinking about ordering some for my pinto but am unsure on what sizes i can clear.

i am running 195/75 r 14 on steel rims on the 72 wagon, 185/75 r 13 on the 78 wagon with stock rims. and on the bobcat 195/75 r 14 rear and 195/60 r14 front using american racing  rims. they have a different offset. came off a 92 fox mustang,so i had to use smaller tires in the front. otherwise they all run fine.wish i had the money for 16 inch rims and 205/40 r 16 tires

My 73 has 15x7 centerlines all the way around with 205-50-15's on it. The rears could use bigger tires as there is still some room there.   The fronts are about as wide as they can go.

That's the look I'm going for Tigger. Do you know what the offsets are on those bad boys? I love the look!

Not off the top of my head.  I will have to pull one off and measure it for you.  It looks like you have an early car from your signature so the offset should work.  I tried these on my 79 wagon and had a bunch of clearance issues with them.

It's no rush, I'm kind of hurting in the wallet dept. right now anyways. Next time you have the wheels off measure them if you think of it and let me know!
