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.......

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.

I know Sammy wants some H-70 x 15's....please make them for him so he will stop bugging me.

wilma

I think the Nova crowd may want at least one choice that is a little narrower....otherwise air shocks will be required.

I have a pair of L60's on my Chevelle. They look great on the stock wheels.
I would buy a new pair, since these are at least 25 years old. The tread is still excellent, it's just the age that concerns me.
