275/60 on 15x8 will go under the back of a 69/70 Coronet with plenty of room to spare if the wheels have zero offset (i.e. 4" backspace).
235/60x15 on the front will give you a slight rake, though you can always adjust the ride height with the torsion bars. If you want a level stance, a better starting point is 225/70x15, which are almost the same height as 275/60x15. The taller tyres also avoid the problem of a vertical gap between tyre and wheel arch (a pet hate for me!).
That's what I went with: 275/60 on 15x8 rear, 225/70 on 15x7 front...
technically zero offset of an 8" wheel would be about 4 1/2" backspace as backspace is measured from wheel mounting face to a straight line across the edges of the wheel back lip. wheel width is measured 'in' the bead but overall width is about an inch more outside lip to outside lip.
neil.
Hi Guys I'm struggling to get 500 wheels centre caps. So was thinking of going for centreline But they don't do 15x7 can anyone recommend a set up for 69 coronet wheels and tyres But don't want white letterd tyres.If possible any pictures would be appreciated Thanks Pat
I have 275 x 60 x 15 on the back, and 215 x 70 x 50 on the front to balance it out a bit.... plus the Super Stock springs.
Extra heavy Torsion bars on the front and HD ARB.

Thanks for the info about the torsion bar.
Am trying to find hangers for the Mopar Competition P3690460 springs but not having much luck.

I can try and ask around if you wish.
"E" Bodies are the only Mopar Platform where I think both the Dodge and the Plymouth use the same extended Front Spring Hangers, all others are specific to the Marque and model....
