Had a chance to talk with the owner of a 69 Mach 1 at the Austin show. His wheel & tire setup was one I hadn't seen before so figured I'd post it to be added to the tire chart.

Front: Nitto 235/45ZR17 AR 17x8 4.5" bspc
Rear: Nitto 285/40ZR17 AR 17x10 5.5" bspc (yes 10")

He's installed 620 springs on the front but has not rolled the fenders. No problems with clearing the control arms and no rubbing.

I will keep this in mind. Only catch is that the chart groups 67/68 with 69/70 and I have no way of verifying that this exact combo would also work on 67/8... and no drive to add it right now /forums/images/icons/wink.gif. Thanks for the info.

How do you keep the TTDII's so polished? I've had mine for about 8 months and I can't get them anywhere close to what I feel they should look like. How do you keep yours looking so good? Thanks!

Ahhh, I can see how you might be confused. They're not my wheels but ones I saw at a show. I'm getting my wheels in about a month so I'll let you know what I find out.

Good luck!

[akbarber]

It was at an Austin show a few years back. Not sure if he was/is on the board.

Mine are 17x9.5s... I could probably fit 10s with rolled fenders.
