Hey guys

i was wondering if i can find examples, pics and infos on the

biggest Wheel /Tire combination
on the rear of a 68' Buick GS

i dont mind doing minor fender works, but not much more

i read 15x8 5.5 BS with 325/50 can be possible with minor fenderworks?

is a 10 inch wheel possible?
what you think?

its stock hight in the back!
would airhocks help to create the needed space/clearance?

appreciate your help

Might not be the best place to ask for that scenario, there are very few people running 15's here, and even less running air shocks.

That said, having just restored a 68 Buick GS with 17x8's and squeezing 255's in the back, I can guarantee a 325 won't fit without use of a sawzall. Unless you're talking about using air shocks to jack it up to clear the wheelwells entirely, then you're really in the wrong forum!

im asking for the in generall wheel/tire combo..

do you have pics of your setup

its more about a 8-10 wide wheel than the 15 inch height of the wheel..
