'67 442 Convertible Rims/Tires
OK guys, I am getting ready to pull the trigger on rims and tires for the 442. I am going to convert to disk brakes all around so that will require 15" rims. I have just about settled on Cragar SS rims. I am looking at the BFG Radial TA in 235/60/15 for the front and 245/60/15 for the rear. Suspension is stock.
Question about the Cragars - Will the 4.5" backspacing be OK for my application?
Question about the tire size - Do you think I will have any clearance problems; either front or rear?
I don't want to order these until I feel sure that this combination will work. Price for rims/tires x 4 is $1406.00, best I could find in the area or online with free shipping.

They fit fine on my car. Been on there for a few years, still look new. We ordered them when they were first released, had to wait for them to actually become available.
Good luck
