I have original 14" stock wheels with 195xR75x14 tires on my 64 Fury 2dr Htd with 383, PS, PB, AT and would like to change to some larger tires for handling and better looks. Leaning stongly towards 15" wheels but haven't ruled out 16" or even 17". I like the retro look of Cragers or possible some brand of gray spoked ET type mags.

I'm just not sure how large I can install without creating a rubbing problem in the back wheel well. I like the substantial look of larger wheels and tires I've seen in photos on this body style and I'm sure it will give a better ride than these 14" weanies I've got now. The right tires and stance really makes a difference on any car but can make or break a 64. Any commments or ideas would be appreciate as I'd hate to buy some wheels/tires and then find out they won't fit.
