15x9 on 69 Camaro

[J.J.]

Ok, so i've done alot of reading and researching, and i know the only way to know for sure is to measure guards etc.

Rear rim I want to run a 15x9 with a 4.5" back space on my 69 Camaro. I want also run a 275/60/15 tyre

Will this fit stock guards? or would i need to go to a 5.5" back space? i want to maintain maximum dish on the rim.

or should i go 15x10 with a 5.5" back space? and then run a 285 tyre?

15x8 with 4.75 bs and a 275 60 15 tire on a 69 is about all you can do if it is sitting low. Which I hope it is.

hmmm 15x8 isn't big enough

[PhillipM]

Why? How low will this car be?

Sorry dude, you can't get that look with out mini tubbing it. You can run a 10" wide wheel but in a 15 doesn't clear the shock enough to suck it in and get the car low. There are other things that are coming into play.

might have to bite the bullet and mini tub it, then run some 15x12 with 335 tyres
