My 68 has 14x6 in front and 14x8 rear with BFG radials. I want to run the correct width rims and perhaps some repro bias ply redlines. What was correct, original rim width for these cars? -paul

14x6's are for '67-8. '69's received 14x7's. 14x8 was not an option when FGF's rolled off the line. Those are after market, probably by Wheel Vintiques.
