    6 & 7's Tire Recommendations

    I have a 71 with stock fender wells (except for factory bright trim on fenders) and deep 6's and regular 7's (f/r). It currently has 225/50's Bridgestone Pole Positions on the 7's that rub ever so slightly on the outside edge on bumps. I don't want to modify the car.
    My question is what are you running for staggered tire brands/sizes with
    this combination of Fuchs?
    Thanks,
    50/50

    There are few choices for our cars, especially if you want something close to (or exactly) in the original size, and V rated or better. I have the same wheel combo as you and put on a set of BF Goodrich G Force Sports 205/60 15, V rated. IMO they look good and handle well.

    Another popular combination is 195/65's on the 6's, and 205/60's on the 7's.
    Almost the same rolling diameter and a little more "meat" where the weight
    is.
    There have been many threads on this subject with lots of info.
