15" tire size suggestions

[Camaro Dave]

I'm helping a friend with his 77 Camaro. He just picked up a set of aluminum slot mags and needs to get tires. The rear are 15 x 8.5 and the front a 15 x 7. Any recommendations of tires that will fit without 1/4 panel interference nor rubbing on the front would be greatly appreciated.

Need to know the backspacing to make tire recommendations.

Front have about 3" while the rear are 3 1/2"

That sets them out pretty far, I would suggest, if your going 60 series, 235 front and 255 or maybe 245 rear.

I agree with Rene, 235 60 up front and 255 60 on the back thats what I have on my 72. My car is lowered and I never have any rubbing issues ever.
