I am thinking about getting a set of American Racing 15x7 TTO's for my 69 Nova. What size tires will fit on the front and rear without any clearance issues? thanks

Charlie, an F70 on the frt is about right although E70x14s were what came on SS novas. G60 is about as big as you can go on the back without clearance issues. The height difference in the size, 70 vrs 60 usually give the car a little frt end rake.

The back spacing on the rear wheels is important. You will need at least 4" back spacing. 4.5" is best. Then 25560R15 will clear. I run 21570R15 on the front. But 225 will fit if you prefer. Earl

Thanks for the replys. Earl are you using a 15x7 wheel with the 215x70's for the front?

I just put 215/14's in the front and 245/14's in the rear of our 1972 Nova SS.
The car is running on some original "CL" 14x7 wheels. -Dan

just so you know 215/70 on a 15x7 rim are to big on the front of a nova. Mine hit every so often should of gone with a 205/70x15 tire. I have 235/60 on the rear both front and rear rims have 4" back spacing.

Jason, can you post a side picture of your car? I would like to see how it looks with the tires you are running.
