any idea's on the tallest front tire without any fender mods?

1968 Dodge Dart
 
It depends on the width of the tire and the backspacing of the rim, but typically 26" is about as tall as you want to go if you don't want to cut anything. Narrower tires with more backspacing will have an easier time.

Like any tire fit question it also depends on ride height, the lower you car sits the more trouble you'll have.
 
good to know. I have a 6" wheel that I will need to check back spacing. I would love a 4" cragar on front with a tall tire!
 
15x7 rim with 4.25" backspacing would be a 225/60/15. That will be close on the front lower lip edge. past body repair, alignment may be thing real close.

You can get extra room on a 67-69 dart by adjusting the lower front fender support all the way outward.

I fit 245/60/15 on my 68 dart by moving the fender support forward by drilling a extra hole on the bottom fender lip. The hole will be forward of the stock hole.

Widest front tires

This is what I did. The hole at the back is factory

Crank up the torsion bars to the max and run 33s " Mad Max Fury Road" style.
