Hey guys, new to the forum. I've done a few searches and not finding an answer. Will 17x9 wheels with 5.5 backspacing fit the front on a 68 camaro? I'm looking at CPP's protouring kit or hotchkis TVS suspension kits if that matters. Thanks in advance

I don't think a nine inch wide rim will fit. It has more to do with the steering linkage. The Ridetech components with the True-Turn linkage I think will work.

no.....it will fit only if you have a real 1968 Z28 and it still has the factory short steering arms, other wise still no, or if you add a tru-turn
