1963 valiant front runner sizing suggestions needed

subcom said
Love the build! Been following it. I was not aware you could fit E-body disks on the front. Good to know. I don't have skinnies on mine, though they are slim 14 x 5" wheels and generic radials. I'm kind of partial to the dog dish caps also on our early As. Also, I have a 295/60/15 DR on my mini-tub and it rubs when the rear end leans on one side or the other going up inclines. My next set will be 275s for sure. Not enough real estate anywhere on our Early Abodies.

Thanks. Beautiful car.

What size and backspace are your rear wheels?

We're using offset hangers, but not mini tubbing. I think a 275 will fit on the rear, but will be tight for us. We will post our results.

I do know for a fact that a 255 drag radial fits very well in a stock wheel well with the right backspace. So a 275 should be doable
