      73 Camaro 18" and 20" what will fit?

      Hello Everyone, great site! Love the Pro-Touring look. But I need to know if this would work. I have a 1973 Camaro (just about ready for paint) with stock suspension. I had planned on lowering the front with 2" drop spindles and the rear with 2" blocks. I do not want to mini tub it, but would roll the back lip if I have to before I paint it. I have my heart set on American Racing Torq-Thrust II. Would like to put 20X10 with a 5 1/2 backspacing with a 255/35ZR20 for a rear tire and 18x7 with a 4 1/2 backspacing with a 225/40ZR18 for a front tire. Would this work? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, 1973 tpi

      You are going to go to the trouble of using a 10 " rim to only run 255 rears? for that you could run an 18x9 or something close with a 275 and a 18x8 with a 245

      A 285/30/20 will fit in there without a problem, and fit well on a 10" wheel. On the front, an 18x8 will fit well, with a 245 wide tire.

      Who are you buying your American's from? We could help if you need it, we're a dealer.

      I was going to get them through Summit. Until now that was the only place I thought I could get them. Thank you. When I am ready for them I will give you a call.

      http://myworld.ebay.com/sport-trucker is where I just showed the 1980 Camaro question guy, they had excellent prices on AR wheels, just had to call and get a quote.

      They quoted me $1183.00 a year ago for 18x8 and 18x10 Custom made offset TT2's, decided to go with Euro wheels though so I can't say anything as far as their follow through on transactions.
