Tires for Magnum 500's for 69 Charger

For my 69 Charger I was planning on buying 15X7 for front and 15X8 for rear magnum 500 rims (from Coker).  FT Back Space is 4-1/4" and Rear Back Space is 4.5" on these rims.  I'm considering a P255/60R15 for rear (BFG Radial T/A's).  Will this size fit on the front w/o rubbing?  IF not, what is biggest 60 series I can put on the front.  I'm asking because I want the spare to be the same size as the rear tires (albeit, on a steel rim) so if I have a flat in the back, I won't burn up the LSD running uneven rear tire diameters (Strange S60 with True Track Limited Slip).

Suspension is all stock front and rear.

Hmmm!   Nobody knows?  So, will a 255/60-15 work on the front of a 69 charger without rubbing?  Surely someone knows this.

235/60 front, 255/60 rear, no problem on either end.
