Is it lowered?

 

Probably not much more than a G-70 X 13 under there ......... That would also be a radial 215 X 70 - 13 0r maybe a 14 too............ scrubba

 

I currently have a random spare on the front of my '60, due to a debris related tire and wheel destruction. It is a 185/80-13, and it clears, car lowered 3-1/2", even in turns. It is about 24-5/8" tall. It is on an OEM 13" wheel, over a deep disc hat, and a 3/8" spacer (13" wheels wont clear the caliper, without the spacer).

 

I had 14" rims on my '63 Falcon,so I know you can use a larger rim. HRP

 

My wagon has 185/75-14s on the back and 175/70-14 on the front.

 

This is what I'm running on my 60 Falcon 2dr Wagon.
P215/70R15 on the front 15x7" wheel
P245/60R15 on the rear 15x8" wheel
The rear rubs a little but not much
The front works great
You can look at the last 5 or 10 shots of my Car and see what you think

 

I run 195/65r15s on the front of my 60 Ranchero. It has 205/65r15s on the back. I have a '75 Maverick rear end. All on Ford 15 inch steel rims from the late 60s or early 70s. I don't think I can get 215s on there without rubbing. It's pretty close to the end of rocker panel in the front. I do have lowering blocks in the rear but it doesn't rub on top of the wheelhouse that I know of.

 

i have a 195 60 r 14 s all the way around and it rubs on the drivers side rear in a corner on the fender lip i got a set of air shocks im tryin to figure out if i could shove a 215 75 in there

 

my wheels are a little dished to

 

i think it may be a little lowered like some one did leaves a while ago or more than likely they have the factory old car sag lowering kit but thats why i got air shocks

 

I run P195/70R14's on my 63 Falcon 2 door with a five lug Mustang/Granada wheel combo.

I seem to recall HotRodDon mentioning that 4 four lug Datsun 240Z 14" wheels will interchange, if'n your runnin' 4 lugs....and I didn't just imagine the info....

 

You did not imagine it. That is correct.
