I struggle the same way with decisions like this. My take? If you are going full resto, get the correct tire.

If you want the day 2 look, go big or stay home. Not so big that you can't drive it without the tires rubbing. Go with the biggest tire in back that will not rub (that means getting the correct offset wheels.

Best of both worlds? If you have room, get both. I have my original rally wheels with correct looking Goodyears and a set of Centerlines (could be American Racing, Cragar, etc. here) with 255 60 15 out back and 215 70 15 up front. The front tires are just barely taller than the original E 70 15. Of course, mine is a 69, so it didn't come with the same tires as your 67.
