      18" rims wanted for 69 Camaro

      I'm looking for a set of 18" aftermarket rims for my 69 Camaro. 8-inch fronts and 9 or 9.5 inch rears. 4.75 back spacing for the 8's and 5.25 back spacing for the rears...I have a U.S. mailing address so don't let the Canadian flag throw you off. The car is lowered now,2.5 inches front and 3 inches rear...anyone have something along these lines please drop me a line...thx

      I got these for sale. Not exactly what you're looking for but I will ship.
      I have the adapters that give them 4.5" backspace in the front and 6" backspace in the rear.
      I would include the adapters.

      Dave, did you give up on the 17" Rally wheels? Rev Wheels makes the Classic 107 Rally in 18 x 9. Not sure the backspacing will work for you though.

      Brian it's the back spacing that kills me on those Rallyes...I really like the look of them but it's just not going to fit with the car lowered like it is...

      Brian,

      What size rear tires are you trying to fit ? Not sure if the backspacing you mentioned (5.25) will work for you.
      I am running 18" Circle Racing billet rallye wheels on my 69. The general backspace most people go with on a
      69 is 5.50". Here is what I have on mine.

      Front-
      18 x 8 w/ 4.75" BS
      245/40 tires

      Rear-
      18 x 9.5 w/ 5.50" BS
      275/40 tires

      I had the rear lips rolled for added assurance, but not sure if I really needed to.

      LSX those are the tire sizes I'm going with as well as back spacing.I've also rolled the rear lips for that added room...I just found a set of US Mags U111 Rambler wheels...love the look as well as the price...another step closer to getting it on the road...thx
