hey all,

I have a 67 belvedere that i would like to put my set of 15x8 steel wheels on and just run some chrome lugs on there. I am very new to this classic car stuff and have limited knowledge of parts and repair etc. My question is, is this 8" wheel the normal cop wheel you see around for that plain jane look, or is that more of like a truck wheel etc. I have never had an 8" wheel and have having a heck of a time figuring out what size tires to buy that will clear and look good on these wheels.

I have done no modification to the wheel wells etc so that part is stock.

Do any of you guys have a 67 belvedre/gtx/coronet etc with this type of wheel or have the knowledge to suggest tire size for the front and back that would look good. I am all for more beef on the back but i dont want to push the limit for clearance and cause rubbing etc.

please suggest a tire that would fit these rims and hopefully clear.

I am looking to get some radial t/a's for these btw.

any help would be awesome, thanks.

chuck
