I bought 3” bull nose studs for my Dart and sorted out a set of lugs nuts from my lug nut bin that appeared to fit . I couldn’t get them off even with my impact ! Local tire guy/ drag racer informed me that there are metric lug nuts with almost the same pitch . Turns out that I chose some...

I will try to find the receipt.

I don’t recall if I got mine from WVs but I have a set for my 68 Fastback as well and they fit without modifying anything.

Daily driver? If not go with the Wheel Vintique 15x8” and 255/60-15 drag radials . I have that combo on my 69 340 4sp and hook well as long as I don’t drop the clutch at 5000 rpms . 500+ hp and 500 ft-lbs of torque. And you have more room in your car .

Most white wall/lettering will turn colors if exposed to the elements. Just clean and repaint the lettering . I just can’t pay that price for a mediocre tire .

Sweet car ! I like that and all previous generations. I know of a 72 that has 40k on it and could be had cheap . Very tempted to…. Really nice condition but it’s an L42 car . I think I could get it for 9k .

I was mocking BFG T/A‘s….they are an old design that are rock hard . I get better traction with 205/70-14 Michelins and my brother just put stock size bias plys that are far smaller than his BFGs and was amazed at how much better the bias plys grip . T/As are show car tires. Not performance tires.

just run a set of 195/70-14 of a decent brand radial and get the same traction as the 275/60 BFG T/As … lol. Sorry but those tires are only for looks .

I run regular tires on the street and save my MTs for the strip. But I drive my cars on the street nearly every nice day . Cheaper in the long run .

Actually I think I have some NOS ones .

Perfect stance !

Oh.. your car is green not black . F8 Green may be my favorite . This was my Triple Pickle Imperial .

Man that is a great looking car ! My 68 was an original Black/Black car but I don’t have the patience for perfect body work and it’s too damn hot out here for black . White is forgiving and cool !

205/70-14s I am not saying the 215/65-15s won’t work but am curious about clearance before I pull the trigger on tires

Make sure to turn wheels stop to stop. Its that the tire may rub fender while turning.

Front tire to fender clearance is limited .

Id like to see a pic with the 215/65-15s. I just picked up 5 @ 15x6.5 steel rims . $10 each !

14 x 5.5 with 205/70-14s

Better price @ $74 each ! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C7XCKCR?tag=fabo03-20

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BLHDWJH?tag=fabo03-20 I have been running these on some of my cars . Modern tread design bites much better than the old school BF T/As . I run Michelins on the Barracuda but they are not budget friendly.

205/70r-14s

Remember that too wide of tire for the rim will effect how the tire performs. And a narrower high quality tire with a good rubber compound and tread pattern will outperform a wide one with hard compound and shitty tread pattern . If you are only concerned about the look then go for the widest .

Post a pic of the rim near the bead . That will tell us what width rim you have . 14x5.5s are noticeably deeper there .

How wide are your rims ? A smaller modern tire like a Michelin will give you better traction than a big tire with hard compound and old school tread pattern . Plus they are lighter , quieter , ride better and better mpg.

I just had a NOS bias ply mounted and all went well . Like you it is for display only .

440 and 4.10 Dana ! Lol

Glad I have 2 new sets in the garage.

I have a set of those " unknown export " caps and thought they were for 66 or 67 15" wheels ?

I remember picking up one of my friends Keystones in the 70s and about herniated myself . WOW were they heavy !
