I have 17's on my 66 and the only thing I had to make sure was to get low enough profiles.

235 might be to wide for that rim try a 225. Have the tire shop mount one of each and see what looks beter...

you'll have no problem if you have a 7 inch width. anything 225 and below are fine. what kind of wheels are they?

I recently spoke to these guys at the Atlantic City Show/Auction

http://www.coyswheel.com/index2.html

They were very nice and I really like there products, they have sizing charts and
guaranteefitment. If they dont fitthey will give you shipping tags to ship them back.
And the prices look reasonable

I got the Coyschrome C-5s last week. The tires should be here within a couple of days. I will let you know if they don't fit.
