I need to kno from the people pf have nova's or who ever kno's this kind of stuff what is the biggest size tires that i can run on my 70 nova its time to replace and i want the widestwith out rubbing
What size wheels and waht backspacing. With a 8" wheel with 4.5" of backspacing you can run a 275/60 r15. I have 295/50r15 on some Iroc wheels but the arebowed in and look horible. The only reason I did it was I needed tires and these were used ones I got for free.
there 15 x 8 rallys im not sure on the back spacing they have 225/70 r15's on it right now but i need some wider tires im sure i can tuck some bigger ones under her
275 is about as big as you want to go (with 4.25-4.50 inches of backspace) in the rear, and you still might have problems depending on wheel size and the condition of your suspension.
