    Time for new rear tires questions

    My 68 DartGTS has p245/60r14 that need to be changed. I would like to get the biggest widest tire possible but am not sure what is available. I don't know how wide the slot rims are or even how to measure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks In advance, Tom

    Bottom of lifter worn thru

    Just pulled my hydraulic flat lifters on one side and one of them is worn on the bottom with a small hole. Any ideas on what happened here. Can I just change one? The cam looks fine some very fine blueing like it got hot a little. I really can't afford to change both at this time.
