    This is gonna show the age of when my tires were selected. The fronts are 205-70-14s. The rears are 235-70-15s. I had a wheel rake long ago. Just for reference. The width of the front seem good and stable in the corners. I don't have power steering so they still turn decent at almost no speed. I would think a 215 which is a more popular size today would be fine. My rears will sometimes kiss the fender edge under a twisting driveway. Wish I would go the fat rear fenders like you are planning and make them wider (just for looks). Watch your wheel offsets, that is what may cause problems or solve problems. Happy Hunting! I like shiney too and think you have made a good choice.
