    Will these tires fit? How big can you go on a 1985 lebaron?

    So the stock tire sizes are either 185/70-14 or 195/70-14

    And theres a used set of 195/75-14 tires on craigslist which if my math is correct measure 25.5 inches whereas the 195/70-14s that are on it now and pretty close to things measure 24.75 inches... so they are .75 inches bigger

    My whole thing is whats 3/8s of an inch? they should fit... but my car is somewhere else right now so i cant actually measure and was curious if someone knew off the top of their head

    Thanks for any help

    What wheels are they being mounted on? If its stock offset the bigger tires will likely fit but will rub on full lock. When I got my wagon it had 185/75 14 tires on it and they rubbed the frame rail on both sides on full lock. I put 205/50 16's on pumpers on it and no more rubbing. I now have 205/60 15's on Fiero mesh wheels (less offset) so no rubbing.
