......This is off of dodgestang but it says waiting on confirmation that they are under fender well. Does anyone know if they do and if they will look good on my 65 mustang.

I was going to use this suspension set up...

With this suspension set up, will these rims and size tires fit?

The Rear Tire looks big for a 1965. Just never tryed a tire that big on them.
275,50,15 is 28" in Diam. with a 11" tread. The rear tire should be under 26" with a 9-10" tread.
205,65,15 is 25.5" Diam. with a 8.2" tread. The front should be 24" with a 8" or less tread.

If you havnt bought the tires yet, There no reason to push it if your going to drive it.

Go to the link below and they will show you the sizes of all tires.

I run 205/60R16 on the front of my 67. Front is lowered an they are in the wheel wells. Rear I am running 235/60ZR16 and they are in wheel wells also. I have also cut them up by my fenders. I have 16x7s all around.

i use 225's in the front of my 65, and they fit. Barely, but they fit. My rears are 245 wide, and never had any problems.
