Just wanted to say hello to everyone from the frozen up-state-NY.My name is Sal ,i own a 1970 camaro rs/ss,I just up-dated the suspension this fall with,Hotchkis 2drop front and rear springs,Koni adjustables shocks,suspension tech front and rear sway bars,and Energy suspension body bushings.Now i need to up-grade my stock wheels with 17 or 18 .I`m not quite shure if i should go 17x9.5 5.5 back space or 17x11 5.75 back space ,I don`t want to stick out past the rear quarters or rub the rear .


This looks like a awsome board.

Welcome to the site, Sal. Glad to have you.

As for your wheel question, take a look at https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1008 - it's what we know folks are running - but with wheels above all else, the cars had variations from the factory and may have shifted even more since then... so the only way to know for sure what will fit your car is to measure your car.

Thanks Derekf, if you don`t mind me asking, what`s the best way to measure my car?

Welcome to the site Sal, as you may have noticed the guys here are very helpful and will offer good insight on products they have used and tech advice on issues that may have otherwise been very time consuming. Glad to have you.
