I am going to need to invest in new tires soon for my 72 Coupe. I have the factory original 14 inch magnum 500 wheels, with low profile BFG radial T/As now, I have not decided on new wheels if I am going to replace ment. What i wanted to know is what tire size would be close to the stock or original. Right now because of the change in tire size and rear end gear my speed-o is all screwed up too, and I am hoping ot try to correct it some.

Thanks
John

Thanks, looking in the illustrated facts book, it would have have been the F-70x 14s since the original rims are 14s. I will look at the 225/70 14s.
