Need Redline Tire size advice.

[Chargermoneypit]

I need advice on what tire size to use. I am going to get a set of Coker BFG Redline radials for the 68 Charger RT. I have an off brand tire that are 245/60/15 on Magnum wheels that need to go. I like the tire size and would not go any bigger or wider than that. Coker does not make a Redline tire in that size but they do have 215/70/15 or 225/70/15. I can get a good deal on them through my tire guy locally so would rather stick with the Cokers. I can get a set Diamond Back's in that size but they are quite a bit more expensive to justify the extra expense. So what would be the closest size to the the 245/60/15's. My tire guy has me completely confused as to sizes and measurements make sense.

The 225/70's are going to be a bit taller but would fit the lines of the car great.

Perfect. That was exactly what I was looking for. I will go with the 225/70/15 on the 15x8 Magnums.
