Some 14x6 cragar SS's should be here soon, I'm considering what tires I will want to put on. I want to keep cost down for now so I may end up putting on the 195/75's that I have now on the front and just getting something else for the back. From what I have read it seems that the 225/70 is the biggest "correct" tire size to put on a 6" wide rim. I know some people have gone bigger, and I'm still considering it but I THINK I will be happy with the 225/70. I'm still thinking about it though so if anyone can show me some pictures of a 225/70R14 on the rear of their car, especially a duster or demon, it would help me out. Especially looking for pictures that show how wide this looks from the back of the car. Thanks.
 
Our, (father/son project) 1974 Dart Swinger has 205's on the front and 225's on the rear. I have a 4-door Dart that has 235/60-15's on the rear, but the 225's look better. First we had them mounted on MOPAR ralleye's but we went with Cragar S/S's that we found on E-Bay, $305 for the set and they look new. I hope this helps. By the way, thats our car in Sept 2008 when we found it. Elbow grease and right amount of dress-up and chrome does wonders, he won 2nd place at this local car show in the class he entered.
 
I meant to attach the pictures for reference.
