Front tire height

What model and year?

What is the current clearance between the outer edge of your tire and the front bottom fender lip?

I've found 225/60/15 is max for 67-69 Dart and Barracuda on a 15x7 rim with 4.25" backspacing. And in some cases that is too close.


I have a 69 Dart

A 7 inch rim with 4.25" backspacing is 1/4 over what the normally accepted offset is for our cars which is 2.5".

I will have a 5.25" rim with 3.5 backspacing

The tire you mentioned is 25.6" tall. I run a 26x7.50 now.
