Default BIG WHEELS & TIRES

I have a stock bodied 1969 Camaro SS 350 with just edelbrock intake & polished 4-barrel carb & full length polished Doug's headers. My ride has the factory stock SS 14x7 rally wheels with 215/70/14 tires.
I want to put the biggest 14" tires that will fit under the stock fenderwells using the same size tire all around.
Could some of you experts steer me in the right direction. So far the largest 14's I have found are made by B F Goodrich in a 245/60/14. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.
