70 Charger 14" magnum wheels - widest tire size out back?

[AJ1966]

Hi all,

I am picking up some repro redline tires for my parent's 70 Charger.  We found some original magnum wheels for the car, which are 14"s apparently.  What is the widest tire out back that can fit on the rim?  I figure the wheel is 14x7?


Also, where is the best place to get repro redline tires for the car?  This is a birthday present for next week.  Thank you!

I thought factory magnums were 14 x 6".  Atleast mine were.  I ran 245/60/R14 and it was fine.  I don't know what you can get for a wider 14" tire.  I stepped up to 15" magnums last year.

Factory magnums in 1969 were 14 x 5 1/2.  They could have bumped them up to 14 x 6 in 1970 though.
