Hey bbk welcome aboard. hope you enjoy the site. I do not know the answer to your question but I am certain someone here does, maybe post in the corresponding tech forum. Good luck and enjoy
 
Hello bbk and welcome to FABO. 4.00 should work for the front and 4.25 for the rear. There`s a good chance the 4.625 may hit your springs if they`re not moved in. HTH.

How wide of a rim are you going with?
 
Another Socalite. Welcome. Hope to see that Dart some time.
 
Welocome. Will you and/or your car be out at Spring Fling??

There is quite a gathering of FABO members there. Lots of A-bodies.

That 4.225 backspace is the best to fit the most tire and rim. I have 245/60/15 on the rear of my 68 Dart and it just barely fits. Some rubbing on on side under hard corning. And my leaf bushings and leafs are shot.

225/60/15 with 4.225" backspacing will work fine too. I ran those on there also with 15x7 cop car rims with 4.25" backspacing.
