'69 Firebird fitment question....

[69fbirdconv]

:help!:

Will 17 x 8 w/ 4.75 BS fit the front /back without any clearance problems? I want my car to sit low, but I dont want any clearance problems. I dont have any big disc brake systems, just stock.

Thanks
Scott

yes, you can go larger.

I mini tubbed mine, and have an aftermarket front subframe....I'd love to be able to help a fellow 69 Bird loyalist but my info is useless.


EDIT: oH AND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bird is still in the "reassembly" phase. She's a triple black 'vert with 77k orig miles but I've mod'd her to my liking. I'm trying to figure out what wheel/tire combo to put on it........thanks so far for the ideas.

Reassembly isn't important....here are some pics of my project.../

Nice ride Kevin! I cant wait to see it done. My bird is no where near that nice of a ride. Mine will be a "restored" convertible with some subtle personal changes.

I dont have any recent pics, but this will show my car pre-paint. I mounted some TT2's on it from my friends Camaro ( in pic ) to check fitment, but it was a little tight in the rear fender wells.

Cooll. It looks like it was in really nice condition to start with! I like the convertible, you don't see many 69 Birds, and even fewer of those are verts! Good luck, its a great car! Keep us posted!
