TIRE SIZE (HELP)

[tonyi]

I'M TRYING TO FIT THE LARGEST TIRE POSSIBLE ON 8"X 14" WHEEL WITH A 3 1/4" BACK SET WITHOUT RUBBING MY 57 HAS STOCK SUSPENSION MY HOPE IS A 235 70 R 14 IS ANYONE RUNNING THIS SIZE

[chevynut]

Front, rear, or both? Do you want front and rear the same size? That wheel has -1.25" offset so it's going to be a poor choice.

MY INTENTION IS TO USE THIS SIZE ON THE FRONT 235 70 R 14

I don't think you can make that wheel work with any tire size.

[chevynut]

Yes Rick, you're right. The outsides of the WHEEL lip on front would be about 71" and on the rear about 71.5". They won't work even on the rear. You need much more backspacing.
