On my 78 245 (sold as of Wed.) I ran 205 70s on the original 14" rims.

For the last 3 yrs I ran 205 70s as well. I had intened to run 65's, but the tire store had none in stock and was willing to let me run the 70's till the 65's came in. The thing is, I really liked the 'meaty' look of the 70s and they ran great, so I kept them. My current 79 245 has 205 65 15s on it and I'll be swapping them to 70s or maybe even 75s next month.
