will an L60 tire fit on a 10 inch rim?
This is the closest I have around here for a visual.
This is a L60 15 on a 8.5 wheel. Tread measures just over 10".
I believe if the L14's your looking at have the same 10"s of tread width?? you may be fine on a 9" wheel.
I probably could have used a 10" wheel with these L60 15" tires but never tried it. These particular wheels I had fit the car fine without the tires rubbing a fender.
I think the square corner bias ply tires work out best on the old style wheel sizes, look better than the radials.
Bias plys are what tires were available when these old style wheels were new and just seem to be a good match.
I would definatly measure the tread width before purchasing. I wouldn't put too much stock in any chart myself but I do trust a tape measure.
