Does anyone have the 15 x 7 4" BP rallyes on their Barracuda? Is there any problem with fit in the fenders?
Anyone have pics of them on their car?
Thanks!

I put them on a 69 Dart with BFG Radial T/As. I could barely get one finger thickness...about 1/2" ....between the tire and the inner fender lip....NOT rolled. The front was fine, I had it pretty low and raised it until the tire did not rub at full rt or left turn and it was an awesome stance. Don't know if this helps, I hope so.

I've cop rims that are the same 15x7 with 4.25" backspacing.
It all depends on the tires.
here's 225/60/15 tires front and rear. That can be close in the front. And alignment and past collision damage can change the fit.
225/60/15 in the rear with those rims is easy. I've run 235/60/15 in the rear also. And I'm sure a 245/60/15 will work too, but might rub a tiny bit on the leaf springs on aggressive cornering. A 1/16 spacer will take care of it.

Been debating pulling off the 14" slots.

You can even go to 15x8 on the rear with no problem. Couldn't find a better pic right now but here's a pic of my old '68. It has 14x7s on the front, though. Dallas
