69 Barracuda Front Tire Clearance Question.

Going to pick up a new project in the next couple of weeks. A 69 Barracuda Formula S 383 car. I want to install 15" old style Cragars with BF Goodrich T/A tires all around. I talked with a guy at Newstalgia auto last week and he mentioned guys have complained about fender to tire clearance up front on these cars. I wanted 215 70 15's but he suggested 65's instead of 70's. Can anyone elaborate. I'm thinking of buying the whole tire, wheel package from them ready to bolt on but it won't be good to get the fronts on and not clear turn wise. Car has drums up front.

Thanks.
