SlimeGold 69 15 Report post Posted February 1, 2010 (edited) Check this chart out. http://www.dodgestang.com/Tire%20Fit...de%2069-70.pdf The tires should work as long as you get the correct backspace on the wheels and your car is not sitting on the ground.

Thunder Kiss 13 Report post Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) I think that size tire is too short. 215/50-17 would be better. Either way, the size you have will fit a 17x7" with 4" backspace. Edited February 2, 2010 by Thunder Kiss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angel 24 Report post Posted February 2, 2010 IMO, those tires are kinda small in both width and height. If you havent installed them yet, you might want to reconsider using them. Unless you like that look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EastYorkStang 63 Report post Posted February 2, 2010 I have a 235/45/17 front and 255/45 on an 8" rim That fits quiet nicely. Have a look at my avatar for a better feel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
