'68 Rebel Tires

Would 205/70 14 Tires fit a '68 Rebel OK without any rubbing problems?  I'm a bit of a dunce when it comes to tire sizes (along with a lot of other stuff). I've been given a few available options but want to go with a tire that will look the best on the car.

Yes, a 205 will fit just fine. I'm running 215s, and those should run fine on your car (my 63 Classic may have a bit smaller wheel well than the 68). 225s might fit, but that's getting a bit close in my car.If 205s or 215s work for you they are fine. You might want to check the diameter compared to stock tires. A 70 series might be a bit shorter, but if the tire is a bit wider then it may be just right. I don't recall stock tire size.

Check the owners manual or TSM for original tire size. Here is a chart showing equivalents:

An E-14 is equivalent to a 205/14. Should be about right, but a bit wider tire won't hurt, and won't throw the speedo off more than a couple mph. AMC didn't change the speedo gear for one tire size up/down.

BTW, I got pretty reasonably priced whitewalls from, of all places, Amazon. I've had them now for a year and put a lot of miles on them. They've been quite satisfactory. Bruce Clarkson

What aspect ratio are those tires?

I seem to recall that they are 75's.
