Need new tires but too many choices ......

Hey 68Cuda,

I'm in the same boat with my 72 Scamp needing some new tires. I just installed some old slot mags that look great, but the rear tires are just a hair too big (slightly brushing up against the fender skirt on the passenger side). They are old tires, so they probably need to be replaced anyway.

Here's what I have on the Scamp now.

Front (no problems):
14x7(sbp) slot mags w/3.5" backspacing
P215/60R14 BF Goodrich Radial T/A

Rear (too tight, old tires):
14x7(sbp) slot mags w/3.5" backspacing
P245/60R14 Road Master

I'm thinking a a couple P235/60R14 BF Goodrich Radial T/As for the rear would be a perfect fit. I know they are a little pricey, but they are great tires and tend to hold up really well. I also like the RWL on the outside.
