Default Sorry to beat a dead horse (very specific wheel size ? ...again!!!)

I found some Ansen Sprints - 15 x 8.5 , 3.5" BS
For a '71:
Will the fronts rub with 255/60/15?
Will the trailing arms be ok in the rear with 275/60/15?

Thanks again!!!(as always!)

The fronts will not rub. I have the same combination. The rears I don't think so. The emergency brake cable tab might need moving.
