Will any combination of these 4 wheels fit a 1968 Camaro with disc brakes?

Anyone?

The 18 x 8.5 w/ 5.125 in back spacing would work easy in the rear ... and might also be the best bet for the front ... if the 18's would clear the upper ball joint / A arms ...

18x8.5 will work in the front and rear but I'd go wider in the rear for a staggered look. If you run a drop spindle in the front you may have problems but otherwise you should be OK, but you have to make sure the offset is correct. For the rear Id go 18x9 or 18x10. Im running 18x8 front, 18x9 rear Boyd Coddington Junk Yard Dog 2-piece aluminum wheels, powder-coated in flat black. Toyo Proxes 225/40-18 front and 275/35-18 rear.

Ok, thanks. I was concerned about fitting the 8.5" wheel on the front.

8.5 on the front will be fine. It's the 10 on the rear that I'm concerned with. I've heard 9.5 is the max for stock camaro 67-68 rear. I will be putting 10's on the rear. Might be some more welding and cutting!! lol

I bought the 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 for my 80 and I really like the style of the wheels and the quality is quite good considering the price.

I'm not sure where everyone is getting that 9.5" will work in the back of 67-68 Camaro and Firebirds. I have 8" rims in the back of my 68 Firebird and with the biggest tire I could run. The wheel well is filled from side to side. I have the option to lower the car now but a 9.5 will only work on early 1st gen if you want the car jacked up. There just is not enough room. IMHO This is an 8" rim. I will have to check on the tire size.

I have about 3/4 of an inch on both sides of the tire and the closest rubbing point. You might be able to go a little wider if you rolled the inner quarter lip. I tried a set of 9.5's with a 275 series tire and it fit but I could not lower the car down at all.

Its all about offset and tire width and diameter. Im running 275 but the offset is perfect, they rub on the outside but I just need to roll the fender. Im going with 295's on the next set!!
