How big of tire for 68 Cuda Minitub ?
« on: May 31, 2008, 02:57:06 PM »

I'm getting ready to have  my 68 Cuda fastback tubbed out . How big of a tire can I put up under it without jacking it up much at all with a mini tub ? And will the back seat be able to stay ?  I may decide on a full tub without the seat if I cant put some large tires under it with a mini tub . any pics, or links to one thats been done  ? The car will be a 505 stroker ,727  automatic ,  street cruiser that will see the track maybe once a year or so

13.5" section width will fit easy.  The back seat wont fit though.

I really like the looks of a tubbed out Cuda, The guys doing the work prefer to do a full tub instead of a mini tub. I'm still undecided on which way to go , I haven't got the quote back from them yet.

14/32/15`s with a 52" wide Dana in this car . Not really tubbed , just "squared " wheel wells.
