tire and wheel size for 68 dart ?

What is the widest wheel and tire you can fit under a 68 dart? the wheel lip has been rolled.show some pix if you have them. thanks

This may seem obvious to some, but are you asking about the FRONT or the REAR?

rear

Our 69 cuda has 275/50/15 on 15x8/4.5 back space, car sits at factory hight, great fit great look.

a stock dart rear wheel opening can handle a 235/60-15 tire. If the axle is centered perfect between the quarters, you can get a 245/60-15 tire in there. With a rolled lip, you should be able to get 255/60-15, but you may have to play with the rim back spacing. With production style rims, a 245/60-15 will only be about 1/4" away from the leaf spring on the inside bulge of the tire.

with my 68 Dart with A-body 8 3/4 moser axle/large brakes,rim/tire centered in the wheel tubs no rolled lip,i ran..

7x15-4.5 bs-245/60/15
3.5x15-1 3/4 bs-165/15 skinnys

fit and worked great as a daily driver

Cop wheels I have 255/60x15 on the rear with 235/60x15 on the front
some tire makes I have had to install a 1/8th spacer to the rear.

my cop wheels were 7x15 with 4.25 bs

I ran the 245/60 on them as well

My 69 has 255-60x15 on 8-inch rims, rolled lip on quarters, stock spring location, later big bolt pattern, big brake a-body 8 1/4 rear. Tires are wall to wall with about 1/4-inch to quarter and the same to the leaf springs. Low stance. Never rubs.
