I have a 1970 Fastback with 14x7 Magnum 500 wheels with F-70 bias ply tires and I like the way this tire size looks on the car, I want to replace the tires with a set of new BFG Radial TA's. Can someone tell me what new metric tire size will equates to the old F-70 size? I am also considering going a little wider in the back, does anyone also know how big of a tire I can I can go on on the14x7 stock rim with out compromising safety and also not have wheel rub issues? ( the suspension is stock height)

Thank you

Bring your car to your local tire shop and they will be able to match up tire sizes and talk to you about clearance issues.
