    Hi All,

    Has anyone out there ever tried to put F 60 15" Goodyears (repros) on a 1967 GT 500? I'm concidering doing this but wonder if the front of the car has enough clearence for this wile cornering.

    Any comments are appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Steve67

    I had a set of these on my GT 350 when I bought in back in 1971. And, even autocrossing it, never had a problem. The top, maybe a little to the rear of the front tire would lightly rub when the wheel was a certain way when you bumped up a driveway curb.

    Thanks for your input.
    I have decided to go for them. I have had large tires on the car before but never F 60's on the front. I think that they will look quite period correct but handle better than the repro speedway 350s (gut feeling), we'll see...
