Default 225/50/15

I just started reworking my 1965 coupe, I ordered some p225/50/15s all around. I am dropping the suspension i" all around and am adding disc brakes as we speak. Will the tires that I ordered work without rubbing>
Thanks, Kent

If the car is not set up in the "GT" setting (front) you should be OK. If it is, they will rub in the turns, so you will have to hammer the inner lip down a bit.
