14" front, 15" back Rims

[TOMRR]

I would like to run a wider tire on the back of my 69RR. I have always like things to match. On the front would be P225/70R14 and on the back would be P295/50R15. I have them on road wheels and would have to buy a set of 15's road wheels. Does any one do this !! Any issues??

Thanks Tom RR

Will a 295 fit in the well?

I was thinking 15 inch rim's all the way around so a spare tire would fit any and all the way around. Know it might be smaller in the back but could get to a tire store or home with it. Russ

guys used to run 14s and 15s all the time.

If you have a limited slip your spare should be the same diameter as the other rear and then might not fit the front if to tall.

Is that the new purchase. Dave. I like it. Maybe you can get it fixed up and make some spare money by towing on the week end's. It's not a roll back but should get the job done. Russ.

No limited slip here. Just the old 741 rear end. But saving up my money for one. Russ

I'd love to have that, but it would have to be F8
