I have a 69 with 15X7 rims all the way around and I wanted to know what the recommended size for these rims are. I want to standardize the size all around and I was thinking of putting some BF Goodrich Radial T/A 235 60 15's. Are these tires OK? The only concern I have is the possibility of rubbing on the front tires. All ideas and suggestions are welcomed. Thanks.

Do a search on the subject, it's been discussed thoroughly. I run 235/60/15's on the front of my 69', with new BB springs and shocks, there's no hint of rubbing. As long as your suspension is in good shape, you should be fine. I wouldn't go wider than that on the front, but I run 255's on the back, you could probably squeeze 275's in there, depending on your rear suspension. 235's all around are not a bad choice, I just like a little more meats on the back.....KZ
