I need your recommendation, I have to replace my tires on my 74, the rims
are 15".

The current rear tires 255-60r-15
The front tires are 225-70r-15

I like the look of the wide ties, the previous tires were put on by the
previous owner. Not sure if they match, rims are aftermarket with correct
offsets.

Thanks

I run BFG 255x70r15's all around and like them. They dont rub .
Noticable improvement on handling over the 235's i had.

My '72 has 235/60-15s on it all 'round on the stock rallye wheels. No
problems with turning clearance or fender rubbing.
