i am running 225 70r15's on the front and rear of my 73.the tires are really too
big for the stance i want the front of the car to have,it makes it sit up too
high and i have to use air shocks in the rear just to get it back to level.anyone have any ideas of what size tires i could go with in the front that
would lower the front end but still look good with the same back tires i have on the car now?i also tried 2 inch lowering springs in the front which gave the car more of the stance i was looking for but i would have had to use a
much smaller tire in the front to fit in the wheelwell that just did not look good.

The 225/70-15 is about 27.4" tall

A 225/60-15 would be about 25.6" tall

Find a good link for tire size comparison and plug in several different sizes. There are several available.

Here is a sample:
