Another wheel question - leaf springs moved inwards. How big can i go?

Hi All,

New member here from the UK.

I'm on the MMA forum over in the UK, wanted to ask a question about my 1968 dart on here if I may.

Looking to put larger wheels on the rear of my dart, which has had the rear springs moved inwards already.

This is the situation at the rear.

I've gains about 3 inches moving the leaf springs in. Though the tubs at the top are currently 2.5 inches from the edge of the inner tyre.

So I have 2 inches to play with.

Do you think 285/60/15 tyres will fit there?








Looking at getting these wheels.
