tire size Reply #4 – June 22, 2008, 08:23:16 AM I had these under my car for about 1 week on a set of 10" wide weld wheels with the stock rear. I think they had a 4.5" back spacing. These were my brother so I do not know any more info about the wheels. I was rubbing the fender lip (on the side walls) when the car twisted. I could have fixed that by changing the rear springs or putting a couple spacers in the springs. Quote Selected

tire size Reply #6 – June 22, 2008, 05:04:56 PM I believe that I have read that Blown306Cougar (Nick) had this size on the a set of 10 holes before getting welds. Do not know if there where any issues of rubbing. Quote Selected

tire size Reply #9 – June 22, 2008, 10:35:03 PM The ideal tire for a 7" wheel is a 205. Quote Selected
tire size Reply #10 – June 23, 2008, 07:38:24 AM 236/60's fit nice on the turbines, wouldn't go much wider on a 7" wheel Quote Selected
tire size Reply #11 – June 24, 2008, 05:24:08 PM i have 275/60/15 and its not bulging at all on turbines. my question was would 295/50/15 fit underneath the back of a cougar. that wide of tire i wouldnt put on a turbine. i planned on putting them on weld wheels if they would fit underneath the rear without rubbing.
