    on the front I have 14x6 and the back I have 14x7
    I was planning on getting some Radial T/A's at 225/70R14 will those work for all the wheels?
    whats the widest I could go on the back?
    Will they rub?

    thanks

    Zach, you should have no trouble running that size all the way around. Some of us are running 275/60R 15's on the back without rubbing. You should be okay as long as you are running about a 3-4" backspacing on the rear.

    Hello

    Hi:

    I wanna buy 225/70/r14 on the rear. I have 14x7 in my wheels.

    Now I have 215/60/r14 in all wheels.

    I was looking for a 215/75/r14 but I think it is for a truck.

    I´m trying to find the hightest tires, and a muscle look.

    The 215/75 has 161.25 milimeters (215*.75)
    and the 225/70 has 157.5 milimeters (225*.70)

    If you bought it, I would like see some pictures.
