I did the 14's up front and 15's on the rear, used rally wheels and loved the look, but my baby would rub her belly going over speed bumps, so I went back to the 15's all around with the Z/28 wheels and it steers better, go figure.

I got tires for my Austin project recently that has 14" rims on the front and it was a bit tricky finding much selection for the front tires. Backs are 15" so there were tons of choices. I'd go 15" if I had the choice.

15 in Cragars look and work great!!!

running 15 in Cragars S/S on my 70 L78 SS P245/60R15 fill the opening perfect and rides and handles great. I often wondered what wheels came on my car from the factory? F7014 was the tire size but what wheels came on the limited 600 SS/396/375 HP Camaro?
