      67 Camaro Mini Tub

      Recommend a kit? Leaning towards DSE at the moment but any input is helpful.

      Still a leaf spring car (Global West) so I need all the junk to move the springs in. Rear will be custom so any width is possible. I realize I'll need a tank too.

      What size rear wheels will fit? Car will be low, tops of tires tucked in the fender.

      I would suggest first that you look at the DSE sight. It lists a guideline for tire and wheel fittments. Then I would contact people who have installed them. I would suggest Frank at Prodigy Customs or DSE. They both have plenty of experience with this set-up. They also can recommend and quote pricing on all the other stuff you will need.

      I personally have the DSE 3" drop kit for my Firebird. I purchased it at the time because it was one of the better kits out there. Plus their customer service is great. I am planning on running a 315/30-18 tire with a 11" wheel.

      Detroit speed uses an offset shackle if you want to keep the leaf springs. If you want to spend a little bit more talk to Frank @Prodigy about his 4 link special. I agree with Ben DSE can tell what tire size and rim offset you you need
