Hello all I am just getting started on a 69 z28 project, I am so pumped up excited. I am not to sure if I want to narrow the rear-end if I don't what is the biggest rear wheel and tire combo that I can install thanks

Without mini-tubbing you can fit a 275 series tire, possibly a 285 if you absolutely nail the back spacing. With a mini-tub (rear end doesn't need to be narrowed for this) you can fit a 345 on a '69.

Thanks Ralph I think that is enough tire on the ground without narrowing the rear end. I am now making the final move on what suspension company to go with for my project. I also need to decide on the brakes aswell. Thanks again
