I am going to have to get a set of tires for my 68 what size looks really good on front/back? thanks for your opinions

 

Wow. There are going to be a wide range of opinions on this one.
What wheel size do you have 14, 15, 16, 17 inches??

Check out this 68 Vintage Wheel Works
I think the size is perfect.

 

No wheels yet either

 

billet wheels and mickey thompsons front & back. if interested i can give you the dimensions.

 

Definitely a 275 in the rear. 275-60-15 or 275-50-17. The front is up to you whether you want the drag race look or more of a street look. I have the 275-50-17 on a 17X9 in the rear with 225-50-17 in the front on a 17X8. Be careful with your back spacing, 5 1/2 on the rear and 4 3/4 on the front would work perfectly. I went 5 3/4 and 4 1/2 and have some minor issues.

 

I have P245/60R15 on the rear and P215/65R15 on the front. They look great but whomever put them before me on didn't fix the speedometer to account for the different size tires which results in it being about 10 mph high at 65 mph.

 

I would go with P245/45R17 in Front and P275/40R17 in the rear.

 

This sounds really nice. Do you have this configuration on your car? If so, I'd like to see some pictures. Please PM me with more information.
