Two quick questions, will a 15x7 with 3.5 B/S work on my 65 five lug ranchero? what size tire dio guys recomend? thanks in advance.

Yes but they will be close to the fenders and quarters.
Leaves you narrow tire choises..

I'm thinking no wider than a P205/60r15 on the front and rear..

For a non lowered car..

just a guess on the tire size..

I'm running 15x6 all the way around with 3 3/8 back spacing is I remember right. I have 195-60-15 front and 205-60-15 rear.

I do plan to try to get more rubber at the rear one day.

Mine is a 62. The tire fitment on a 65 is different. Hopefully more will speak up. I don't think you'll have too much trouble with the 7".

I have 14 x 7 in the back on my '65, but can't remember the backspacing. I'll go measure if no one else knows for sure. I have 235-60x14's on the back and it has appx 3/4" clearance inside and out.
