Tire size for my scamp

[Ace 72 scamp]

What are the biggest size tires I can fit on my stock 1972 plymouth scamp 6cyl? I've got the stock 14x5.5 steel wheels. Will the 215 70 14s rub at all? Can I go to the 225 70 14s? Or are the 205 70 14s ideal?

On a 5.5’’ rim you’re not gonna wanna go much wider than a 215 or 225 max. Also depends on the backspacing.

I’m running 235/60/14 on each corner on stock 14x6 rallye rims.

I'd go with 215/70/14s.

Maybe check with the search feature as this question has been asked to death.
Lots of good answers at your finger tips.

Side note: “welcome aboard.”

Additional note:
When searching the tire size, include results for '67+ Dart (not Dart Sport). Same rear wheel wells and fender openings as a Scamp.
You should be able to go 225 70 in the rear (235 may physically fit, but you're going to run into issues with speedometer calibrations); but I wouldn't go over a 215 70 in the front on stock rims at factory ride height.
