      19x9-19x9.5. 1968 Camaro front wheel backspacing with ride tech true turn

      Hello all!
      I'm looking to see how much front wheel lip I can get without doing any modifications other then rolling the front fenders.
      I'm will be running ridetech control arms, coilovers, their tru turn system and Baer T4 system once they arrive in the mail! Come on FedEx!
      I've been looking for threads but can't seem to find much on wheels 19x9.5 and 19x9 let alone running the tru turn with a more minimal backspace for a deeper look.
      Any help would be much appreciated or links to helpful threads.

      Fwiw, on a 9" wheel with 5.5" bs, I've been told front lip would be approx 2" on a set of CCW lm20, or monoblock. Obviously, style of wheel will dictate exactly how much lip too, that same combo in a concave yields virtually no lip, less than 1".

      Have you looked up the specs on the 48 Hour Camaro? They are running 18x10 on that 67 Camaro with ridetech suspension.

      Given sufficient initial acceleration, even pigs can fly!

      Yes they're running an 18x10 with 5.75BS
      They had to modify the inner fender(not sure how much) and roll the outer fender lip I believe.
      I'm looking at the Forgeline GZ3.
      Just looking for the least amount of backspace I can run without compromising steering using a 19x9.5 or 19x9 so I can get the most lip/dish/front space.

      dont know if id run 19" in front, unless your at stock height, rear no prob for sure, even a 20" but for the front 18" max, 9.75 bs max as well. Currently im running 5.5 bs on a c5 wheel 9.5 wide and 275 35 18. modified fender wells, rolled lip and 3" drop in front, 600 lb spring rate helps too.
