I have a stock all original 86 mustang GT convertible. I am trying to buy tires. I like the Cooper Cobra GT's. Does anybody know if a 225 70 15 tire will fit on all 4 wheels without rubbing? Let me know. Thanks for the help

IMO, it's too large of a sidewall and will look goofy. I'm not sure if it would rub, but it definitely might.
I believe that (working from memory here, it's morning, and I'm only halfway through a cup of coffee) Cooper has a 245/55R15 that fits "perfectly" and without modification, on a 4-eye Fox.
I can just about guarantee you that you will appreciate the difference it makes in the look of the stance. It's been a long time and I think the overall height of the tire is slightly less and made the speedo needle 3 to 5 MPH higher than actual.
That little bit of extra width combined with the slightly lower profile makes it look like you lowered the car off of the factory truck springs.

Those gatorback replicas are crazy money. I ended up just getting BF-Goodrich. I drove the car all summer with no issues so going with the stock size was definitely the best choice. They don’t look half bad either if I do say so myself.
