Tallest tire fitment on rear of Scamp

Don't know how your rear quarters compare to my 67. Here is some of my ranting..........



I started out buying a pair of used Jeep wheels and tires, and called them the "interim" wheels, LOL. In other words they were temporary

Those were 225 x 75 x R15, alleged to be 28.3" tall. Because of the offset of the wheels, they did rub on just one side on very hard cornering




Then I scored a pair of 17" earlier Mustang Bullet wheels, and ------this is where you and I have a difference of cars-----because of the Versailles rear axle and the fact that it's a bit wider, these wheels fit PERFECT, no issues---------scroll clear down to post no 19..........

And then I scored three brand new 225 x 60 x R17, which are just a bit shorter at 27.6. These fit perfect. You can't "make" them rub. The fronts of the tires come withing 1/2" or so of the front lower fender lip. Some guys have moved the rear axle to the rear, which would help a bit
