The year was 1970

And you bought a new 69 SS396 Chevelle the year before. You saved your money for the last year and now you can afford some new 15x7 Torq-Thrust wheels for your ride. but what size tires do you get F70-15 or F60-15 ?

------G60s of course!!! .......Bill S

F70, anything larger than an "F" profile bulged on a 7" rim, that is why the 1970-1973 Z28 (and I think the Trans Am too) came with the F60 as an OEM tire (on the stock 7" rim).

The Corvette used a G70, but they were on a 8" rim.

That is my answer to your question and I am sticking to it.

The 1970 GSX and the 1971 Hi-Perf Mopar B-bodies were factory delivered with G60-15s on 15 X 7 wheels, so I'm with redalert on this one - go forth and 'G' it up.

Size Rim Width Section Width Overall Diameter Tread Width
F60/15...7”...........9.23”...........26.27”.......... .8.25”
G60/15...7”...........9.76”...........26.80”.......... .8.40"

$235 for the F's
$275 for the G's
and you dont even gain a 1/4 of an inch in width with the G's
im leaning towards the F's

For me, it's how they fill out the wheelwells. 'G's make a for a fuller looking wheelwell area on an A-body GM car (and b-body Mopar). The width is good too but the full-looking wheelwell is key for me. Gs on the back and Fs on the front would look killer too. All 60 series of course. Just my two cents.
