First off I read most of the wheel and tyre dilemma thread   :2thumbs: and also used the wheel guide. :2thumbs:
it would seem that there points to a fairly common wheel/tyre combo..

Question 1 . I have just brought a 1970 coronet , are the front and rear wheel arch clearances the same as other b-body ..charger/plymouth .I thought it would be but just checking.

Question 2 .when I look at  wheel vintiques magnum500 wheels 15 x 8 or  15 x 7 on summit there are two types, there is  (54 series ).but there is also the scott drake version .Which look better? hard to tell as the scott drake picture is blurry?

Question 3.it would seem that after my research the most common wheel tyre combo is
FRONT  235 x 60 x 15 tyre                                                       REAR 255 X 60 X 15 tyre
            15 X 7 RIM WITH 4.25 backspace                                 15 x 8 RIM  WITH 4.25 Backspace
            15 x 8 RIM  WITH 4.25 Backspace
Can I get a 15 x 8 on a 235 tyre comfortably on the front and FOR the rear can I use a 245 x 60 x  15  on a 8 inch rim comfortably? I am going with cooper cobra tyres as the fire wall is more curvier for guard clearance than the bfgs.

4.Any cheaper places to buy tyres than Ebay or summit  as I have to ship them to Los Angeles and then New Zealand and then pay 15 % tax on the total :brickwall:
Thanks guys ....
