NEED YOUR GUY'S ADVICE THIS I MY FIRST POST!

I want to replace aftermarket rims for rally II's. I have a 70 GTO Convertible. My plans are to put on 15x7 Rally II's with a 245-60 series.
Will these fit and any occurrance of rubbing?
Those who have done so with a 70 GTO please respond.
Those who have seen such please drop a line.

I am currently running 14x6 245-60 series with no problems. I'm worried about the extra inch in height and width!!!
The vehicle still has original suspension. There is no doubt that the suspension is fatigued, could this present problems with new tire and wheel size?

Also, how are aftermarket Rally II's in Performance Years and others catalogs? This is most likely the way I am going....EXPENSIVE BUT NICE!

SORRY ABOUT THE BOOK, BUT I DO NOT HAVE ASSISTANCE FROM OTHER GOAT OWNERS NEARBY.
THANKS YOUR HELP IS APPRECIATED!!!

Tilster,

Can't help you much with the '70, but if you are woried about fit, why don't you go with a 245/55 R 15. the 245 is the width in mm so staying with the 245 will mean it isn't any wider. Going with the 55 (in lieu of the 60 you mentioned) series gives you essentially the same diameter (The 245/60-14 had an OD of 25.57, the 245/55-15 has an OD of 25.61") Incidently the 245/60-15 you mentioned would have a OD of 26.61".

This would give you the advantage of keeping your speedo reading essentially the same (read about .14% slow)

Ed Neasham,

Oh no! More options. Just when I ready to part with $$ for 15" II's and 245-60's around-em. Your thought sounds good,I'll need to do more homework.
