lskarritt · 02-25-2003, 07:50 PM

I have a 66 Mustang coupe. New but stock suspension. Does anyone know what the maximum tire size is? I want to go to crager ss 15". Need to know back spacing and maximum tire size. Car has a stroke 347 and current P235's r60 won't hook up. Thanks

I couldn't get larger than 235/60/15's on the rear. Still had a little tire rub even with those and had to roll the fender well lips a little. Mine are BFG Radial TA's and I hear you about problems hooking up sometimes.
