I have a 69' dart with a 440 but with hooker supercomp headers. I'am also trying to figure out how much diam. tire can be used. any help would be great.

I had 25" GY front runners with my sc hookers and they rubbed while turning. I never even drove the car, just pushed it around the shop and on and off the trailer. Quickly sold the hookers and put the money towards a set of pro parts. Now run a 27.5" M/T front.

The front tire hieght on the early A bodys like yours are limited by how high you set the front ride hieght I have seen 22 inch( on pro light cars) to 28 inch tall on A bodys

My frontend is set pretty low, and I can run a 26" on mine and they only rub at FULL turn, and just barely at that.
