Torq Thrust D Tire Clearance

[JTRRozon]

I am planning on installing a new set of 15 X 7 Torq Thrust D rims with modern radials.  My 66 GT 350 has been lowered 1" in the front end. and the rear is stock height.  I'm checking to see what tire size other people have installed and had adequate clearance and no tire rub.

Thanks for the information.

Mine is also lowered, tires are 225/60x15 Avons on Torque Thrust. Fenders had some clearance work (rolling,smoothing of lips). No rubbing.
We had to put in some more camber just in case for having it registered here in Germany to be on the safe side (they test quite thoroughly).
Rears have plenty of room - will try 245s soon. 225s look almost lost...

Yeah...that´s still on hold due to Corona lockdown. And there is salt on the road. But hopes are rising !

Blue is currently running Torq-Thrust D's; 15x7 w/ -6mm offset and 215/60R15 upfront; 15x8 w/ 0mm offset and 235/60R15 in the rear. BFG Radial T/A's all around
I have the front A arms lowered 1". The fender lips have been rolled and I have no rubbing issues. It took a bit of massaging to get to this but well worth the effort.

Think you could get away with wider tires in the front?

I'm running 225 to n from with Cragers and 1 inch drop.

Nice picture!  Does the staggered size setup lead to dartiness on straight roads or notably increased understeer?

Thanks - the picture was taken running the Tail of the Dragon last June.
The staggered sizing doesn't seem to change the dartiness over the original mags & tires. I attribute that more to the Caster setting being closer to "straight up" at +2. It's a real workout driving slow <g>. I can't say I notice any increase in understeer.
