Re: [Chrysler300] Tire size

[Jack Farris <j2farris@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jimmy,

You may want to consider what I did--convert to 15" rims. The  
conversion allowed me the clearance to put large-rotor front disk  
brakes from a '70 NYer on my '66/300. I had Toyo P225/70R15 whitewall  
tires mounted with plenty of wheel-well room to spare. I got the  
tires from Les Schwab (big tire dealer on the West Coast, don't know  
about back East). Other dealers may carry Toyo, however.
