I have run BFG 255/60-15s on my 69 H/O on the stock 15x7 wheels with only very minor rubbing in the front when you hit a bump when the wheels are turned full lock, such as happens if you hit a dip entering a driveway. Other than that, they fit fine and look great.

Running 275/50/17 with 10" wheels on the rear and 255/50/17 with 8" wheels on the front of my 69 Cutlass wagon.
There's no rubbing problems and the car is lowered almost 2".
