Tire Size Question

[seerex]

Ok I know there have been many threads about this but I just got 6 spoke 280zx wheels for my 72 240 they are 14x 6 and was considering 2 tire sizes 205/60hr 14 and 225/60hr14 , on my old 240 which was lowered like this one will be soon had 215/60-14 with no issues , unfortunately it seems I can only find these two sizes in the speed rating and tire style I desire , is a 225 too big ? I have read that 24.75in diameter is roughly the size to keep the speedo in sync , the 225 is very close in reguard to that but questioned the rubbing issues that might happen, any help with your expierences would be appreciated:geek:

Shouldn't have any clearance problems on a 14x6 wheel with either 215's or the 225's.....especially since you know the offset is OK as they are a Z wheel to begin with.

I had 225/60's on the ITS car with 0 offset 14x7's, and only had rubbing after putting the adjustable coil-overs on and dropping it to the minimum height, which is probably an inch or so lower than you'd see on the street. It only rubbed on the very top of the fender well during cornering, so all it took was a little bend in the fender lip to fix it....
