    > You are probably at optimal size for a 14" wheel. If you go much wider the cross section increases and will hit the upper control arm on the lip around the ball joint. This will eventually wear through the sidewall. The 15" wheels carry the tire above the ball joint.

    > I'm about to replace the set of tires I have on my '66 GT 350H. I was really seeking some suggestions from other owners about what to fit my car out with. The wheels are the standard magum 500's, I'm currently running Goodyear Eagle GT+4 at size 215/60R14.
