1965 442 tires
thoughts on best tire dimensions for a 65 442 ?. currently has 225 70 14s on it and they are oversized for front - they are rubbing against fender well when turn or go up/down driveway, etc. am looking at radial TA that are 215 and 205 70 14 for all 4 corners. thoughts ?

215/70's in the front and 225/70's in the back will work great. Not much of a selection in 14" wheels anymore. I went to 15's because its better supported.
