Tire suggestions for C1

[Rowdy1]

Yep.........

Nice looking wheels!.........and the car, plus the cycle look good, too! It's surely is nice to be able to have some toys, isn't it!!

Unless it broken

Unless it broken

Well.......there's that! However, it's a good feeling to know that most of us can fix what's wrong ourselves..........with a little advice, a little studying and some old fashioned mechanic work.

I have the 15x7 Cragar SS wheels with 215x70x15 on it. I
took my stock wheels and mounted some 225x70x15 just for doing but I rarely change them over, I just roast the Cragar's. Come spring I'll be mounting a set of sticky's to one pair of the stock rims to maybe do a little track time.

Rowdy1:
Do you recall what the backspacing of the Cragers are?

No, I Don't

I even went through my folder with all the bills from the 62 but it doesn't say what the spacing is, sorry.

Tires/wheels for C1

It appears that Cragar CRR-61715 wheels fit the bill. Would you Cragar users check your receipt piles and see if that's what you have?

You can have good handling radial tires with the "correct classic look". I see one brand that offers a T-rated 205/75R15 and one brand that offers a T-rated 215/70R15. Either of these could be purchased with a 1" whitewall from Diamondback Classics as a custom order.
