      70 Chevelle Big Block w/Hotchkis Need Tire/Wheel Help

      Hey Guys, I'm gonna ask one of the oldest A Body questions... what is the widest tire & wheel sizes to run on a street car that has a Big Block & Hotchkis Suspension under it? I've read a lot of 275 Fronts with 305/315 Rears on 17's & 18's. Any input would be great. Because the car is Black I'm really considering WELD S77 Wheels. Are 255 fronts & 275 rears more realistic? Thanks In Advance for the input!

      315's on the front seems like it would be a handful on the crappy highways of California....

      Lol hey I didnt ask the question ..I just answered it lol ... it all depends on what hp you have and your driving style . With a big block I wouldnt hesitate one bit to put an overly large front tire due to the weight of the engine alone
