67 Camaro wheel width

[prozoo]

What is the widest wheel i can put on my 67 Camaro.

8 front, 9 or 9.5 rear without mods or minitub.

What about a 10" on the back? And 9.5" for the front? That's what most wheels packages seem to come in.

NO WAY! you will have major interference problems with this combo.

On 67 and 68 Camaro's with stock wheelhousings you can run a 9.5" rear rim with 5.5" BS and a 275 width tire (I have done so on 17" wheels). Just remember that all tire companies don't measure exactly the same way. But that will take up the entire wheel well.

Here is my 2 cents...measure with a wheel tool..I know "everyone" is putting a 9.5 inch rim with 275's on the rear...I measured and had 1/8 of an inch clearance on the inside wheel well in the back and would have had to take off or roll the fender lip completely to MAYBE clear the outside lip....and both sides weren't the same to boot...only 1/8 difference from one side to the other but it varies....
mine is 1968 Camaro..


Good Luck!!

I have an 18x8.5 Front w/ 5.5" BS and they fit with stock drum spindles. They did however rub on the sub-frame at full turn though. I converted to a 2" drop spindle and now the outer tie-rod end hits the wheel. an 1/8" spacer (yes, I hate them too) solved the problem, still stays inside the fender lip, and the disc conversion moved the wheel out far enough that it doesn't rub on the sub-frame. All of these are things to keep in mind if you're doing any suspension modifications.
The backs are 19x9.5 w/ 5.5" BS and fit inside the wells with no mods. The car is a '68, which should be the same as your '67. IMO, I don't think I will go any larger than an 8" if I have to do it again.
