Which tires for 6X15 and 7X15?

[Veronica87911]

I will be getting new tires for my 72 T, which currently has flat 6X15s. I may get 7s, but not sure yet. The car is standard narrow body, no rolled fenders. I'm looking for real-world experiences with the following wheel/tire sizes...thanks in advance.

7X15 Which size tires? 205/60? 215/60 (might rub on my car...)
Let me know; looking forward to your thoughts.

also curious about what various sizes will fit both 6s and 7s but will not rub (with a safety margin for tire manf. tolerances & variations in fender sizing on the LWB cars)

I have 6 and 7 x 15's on my LWB, non flared car. 205 60's all around. No rubbing ever. I have Michelin Exalto's and they are ok, but not a real high performance tire. There just aren't a lot of choices for 15's

Hello Serge, Sorry to have to revive this thread but I'm on the same boat as you are; 6's in front and 7's on the rear. WHat did you end up using?

Thanks.

Jay, I ended up with layer 7x15 Fuchs redone by Al Reed all around and 205/55-15 Dunlop DZ102 tires. These are summer tires. The car was lowered and these fill the wheel wells nicely. You can see how they look in my signature photo.

Okay I just might go with that. The stance of your car is perfect! Thank you, Serge.
