I still have some H-60x15 Polyglas that I ran on my 70 Z back in the day (2) era.............
Can anybody relate to H-60's I just feel that the L-60's stuck out too far with a stock differential and stock wheelhouse....... my .02

I think it depends what wheels you run, I had 15x7 positive offset (2 inch on the inside) Cragars on my Camaro and they just kissed the fender lips. With regular offset (3 1/2 to 4 on the inside) they would look good. Here is a pic of it in "78" with L60s and Cragars:
![]() I have a new set of J60 15s to put on it if I don't find any L60s. Also I have some 275 60 15 BFG's on 5 spoke Rallys for my Son's 74 LT I could put on for comparison, they are about the size of L60s.

[/ QUOTE ] I ran F60 15s on 15x6 Cragars on the front ( when I bought the car it had F60s on "ugly grey" painted 5 spoke Z28 wheels with two Firestone Super Sport tires and two Firestone Wide Oval tires, I used the SS tires cause it was a SS Camaro)

L60/15's and H70/15's. Too much wheel well shows with H60's in my opinion. I like the backs 27-28" tall. I ran H70/14's on the nova back in 1970. They fit perfect on the GM rally wheels. They were Schenuits made by Kelly I believe. You can buy L60 Goodyears fairly easy. I would love to see McCreary come out or repoped with some RWL's in that size. I guess I got to go root around in Philly at Donny White's garage.
He's got em! I also have a deal brewing with Karen, Tommy's better half on a set of H70 Goodyears. Got to wait till he is out of town though. ![]() |
