My 70 Charger has an 18x9 front with a 275-40-18 tire. The rear is an 18x10 with a 295-45-18. Plenty of clearance and I have my car a bit lower than stock height. Don't go by this as a gauge as to what will fit a 68 Plymouth B body rear , the charger has a huge rear wheel well compared to the Plymout. Front , I'm not sure if the fronts have more room on the Charger ???

I've seen some people run a225/50r17 or a 245/45r17 in the front of a 68 roadrunner with a 8 inch wide wheel. On my rears I have plenty of space to go a little bigger and wider. I have a 18x9 on the rear with a 245/45. I just want a little more side wall on both.

Are the inner and outer wheel houses the same in all the 68-70 b body cars? No they are not. Dodges have more room in the rear than Plymouths.

I've got 295/55-15 tires on the rear of my '68. They fit, but just barely.
