Default 72 Satellite, will they fit??

As most of you know a 71,72 and for that matter the 73 and 74 B body Plymouths look like crap with skinny tires.

I have a '72 Satellite Sebring Plus and because I prefer OEM style wheels, I would like to go with 56 series wheel, preferably 15x8.


I want same size wheel front and rear so I can rotate.
These wheels have 4.5" back spacing.

Anyone have an idea what the limits are for tire size without rubbing??

No first hand knowledge here, but those cars had tons of room in the wheelwells, and I can't imagine there being a rubbing issue if you stay with fairly normal-sized tires. 235/60-15 probably will work on the front & rear.

I know for a fact that 275/60-15's will fit rear, and I don't see any reason they won't front as well, I had plenty of clearance with 235/70-15's front
