Tire sizes

[Cuda_451]

Okay so I have 15x10 wheels in rear and 14x7 in the front. The rearend is a Narrowed 8 3/4. Was curious as to what tires would look good. Anyone have pics?

Problem is 14" tire selection is really limited in selection, 15" is limited to BFG or Mickey Thompson.....

I've found plenty of them around on the internet, and I'm only about an hour from Coker Tires so finding them is really not a problem.

If it was me I'd stick as wide a tire as your rims would allow. I think 235 is the widest you can put on a 14x7. 305 or 315 on the 10" rim, assuming you have the springs moved in with that narrowed axle? If not, I think 295 is the widest you can go. 
Really all comes down to YOUR personal preference though.

I have newer air shocks on back so might as well put them to use too lol.  Does tires sticking out past wheel well look bad on an E-body? If so what size would fit in it.

On a 15x10 I would look at a 295 tire.  Backspace is going to be the key.  When you say narrowed rear, does that include relocating the springs?  If so, you could go more bs and fit it inside the fender lips.  IMHO, I like the tires inside the fender on E Bodies.

I have the relocation kit just haven't put it on. And not sure on backspacing I have a set of slot wheels I plan on running and the local Firestone store said 325/50 but idk how that would be.

I put on the wheels and there was plenty of room away from the springs but it went past the fender well with the tires that are on it.

So you must have a smaller backspace.  With air shocks you may be ok on hitting the fender, but they have their own issues like hammering the shock mount.

Okay, what about on front? What would look good with it?

[dfrazz]

I would ditch the 14" wheels since there are hardly any tires available and IMHO they look like bicycle wheels.  Get some 15x7 and go with a 225-235 tire.  The wider the tire, the more chance the car can follow grooves in the road.

I would love to do that, but I find have matching wheels besides the rims sizes lol. Plus this is only a temporary ordeal
