What size tires will fit?
 

I own a 66 mustang coupe with a 289 and I am deciding to change out the rims and tires on the car. I am pretty set with the American Racing Torque Thrust "D"'s but I am not sure what size tire and rim combo will fit. Do I have to stay with 14x7 or can I use a 15x7 with a lower profile tire? Any help would be appricaited.

Chad66 , I've got a 65 with a 289 and anyone that answers your question , will answer mine also !! I'm really not at the tire stage yet , but it wont be long !! Kevin

This is what I have on my '65 Fastback.

Front 215 60R14 on 14X6" Rims
Rear 235 60R14 on 14X7" Rims

No problem in the front, the rears rub if I hit a big bump or carry a few fat asses (I mean friends) in the back and hit a smaller bump.

This link is talks about the 15" rims.
