Im going with 15 x 7 torq thrust in the front, what backspaceing do i need and what tire size do you guys suggest? I want to go as wide as i can without inerfer.
 
I have 15x7s in the front and15x8s in the back. Both have 3 3/8ths back space. 205-60s front and 235-60s in the back.

Good to see another 69 fastback in Cincinnati...

I haven’t purchased them yet, but I plan to run 15x7 all around with 4.25 BS (same as a rally). My research shows that a 225/50/15 will fit on the front (I hope).

A 225-50-15 is only 23.9" tall, the stock tire was just about 26".
I don't think the 225-50 would look right.
 
225-60 would just touch the front of my fender well while turning. looks like you will have more backspace so it just might go.
 
so i have 15x8 in the rear and 15x7 in the front the fronts have a 4.25 backspaceing, do you guys agree that this will turn with out rub? and the tire a 225/60/15
thanks guys
