Tallest and widest tires?

[74RR]

What are the tallest and widest tires I can fit on stock rims for my 74 Scamp?
Thanks.

195/75-14 if you have the narrow 14" rims

On my '71 Dart Swinger, I had the stock rims widened to 7" and fitted 225/75 BFG radial TA's. That's really on the limit and a bit more, so my next set of rubbers will not be bigger than 215/75.

I got 32X14X15 under my 70 Duster, ya just got to back half it and full tub it to go even bigger.

I fit 245/60/14s under mine no problem when I first built it.

Yes you could get 245/60/14 under there but aren't the stock rims 4.5 or 5 wide? That would mean putting 9.5 inches of tire on a skinny rim. If you not really concerned with handling characteristics and want the eye candy thing, then go for it. If you are interested in better/best handling characteristics then I wouldn't put more than about 8 to 8.5 on a narrow rim like that.

Just put some 225/60-15 on my '70 Duster and they fit fine. Front are on 7' rims and the back are on 8"
