I was planning on ordering 18s front and rear for my 72 nova and just started looking at tire options for 18s and it seems to be more limited then say a 19 for the rears. I was planing on goi g for a 305 tire in the back. looking for suggestions or opinions on if I should go for a 19 in the rear to open up my tire selection or just stick with the 18s which seem to be limited to a 295 in most tires.

I'm running a 19/18 setup on my Camaro, I'm running 14" front brakes and 14.4" rear brakes, I didn't know this when I purchased the wheels but 18's probably wouldn't have fit over my brakes in the back. depending on your brake setup that's something to consider.

Brake clearance won’t be at issue with 18s for my setup

then IMO, I'd try stick with 18's, I don't think I'll run 19's again.

Try using our wheel measurement to help determine width of wheel that will fit. Download it from http://bit.ly/2wOFXJx
