Technical 1954 Chevy 670-15 tire wheel width

I have a '54 Chevy with 670-15 tires. I have a set 6" wide steel wheels that I want to use. Will they work, or to wide?
If too wide, what size bias ply tire can I use? The car is lowered 2" in front and lowering blocks in the rear (2", if remember correctly). Thanks

 

I run 5" wide wheels with those. 6" are a little wide.

As for size, you are going to be limited to how much room you have in the rear wheel wells, without getting closer than say 3/4".

 

My 6.70s are on 6in wide rims.

 

And all the Jag could see were my six tail lights! sorry off topic But I'm in LOVE with that 61 vette!!!!!
