215/70/15

I know, This is like beating a dead horse,...:banghead:..BUT..... I am fixing to do a wheel change on my 72 Demon, and I want to make sure it will work before dropping the $$$...
I am going to 15" wheels, currently I have 205/70 14 on the front, I cannot get a 205/15 in a matching BRAND rear unless I go to a 215/ ....I see that others have a 215/70/15 on the front ......My question is Will I have a problem going to a 215/70/15 from a 205/70/14 as far as Tire clearance? If you have 215/15 , did you have to change or modify anything? The smaller tire size seems to be getting harder to come by in the wider wheels.
.... I am looking at 255/60/15 for the rear .....any flags there?

Check out Tire Rack.com... The older sizes ,are available. (You pay ,up the butt).. Searching, & and time looking. Local ,used tire shops rock.

215/70/14 is what I run on the front of my 69 dart and I have no problems with it.

You should be able to go to a 225, but I run the 215's on my barracuda.
