Hi Doug,
I have the same question. I just bought 16x8s for the back of my 79SC thinking I'd use the 7s in front. But the more I read in the archives about tires, the more confused I get.
Seems many people suggest 205s in the front and 225s in the back on 7s and 8s...which are the same tires I had on the 6 and 7 wheel combination! I want to track my car and get as much rubber on the road as possible so I'd like to put 225s on the front 7s and 245s on the back 8s...but the consensus from the archives seems to be 9s are better for running 245 tires, and that 225s on front 7s may cause a "rubbing" issue on my lowered car.
I hope I just didn't waste my $ buying 8s for the back. Appreciate any comments from tire experts.
