Rims and tire sizes

[B-Body 70]

Hey guys, I’m in the process of getting my 69 charger going to drive before i restore it. I want to have a little fun while I’m putting my 70 GTX together. This car came with 14” wheels. Can someone tell me what a good 15” sizes? I don’t have a clue and like them to fill out the wheel wells too. It’s missing the drive line and radiator too. Going through the motor brks etc.
Thanks!!

Can’t go wrong with a 275/60/15 for rears. I have 245/60/15 for fronts but there are other options as well

All 15x8 with 4.5” backspacing. And yes, standard bolt pattern. Got them from summit racing

Thanks for the information I appreciate it. Your charger is the same color as my GTX color lemon twist.

The slotted mag wheels look great on your Charger R/T. I recently bought a set of US mags polished aluminum slotted wheels if you want to keep the same look. I bought 15x8 wheels for the front and 15x10 inch wheels for the back. You might want to go with 15x7 for the front and 15x8 for the rear with 255/60/15 for the front, and 275/60/15 for the rear.

I concur with chargervert's suggestion. I bought the same US Mags slots for my '70 Charger, I also chose 15 x 8's for the front (235-60-15 for a little better handling) and special ordered 15 x 9's for the rear (275-60-15). The manufacturer can custom drill the wheels for you if you want something wider. I also think 5-spokes are done to death, the slots are a lot more uncommon.
