Hi, Needing some more guidance. I have a 65 GTO that will be a casual driver, nothing fancy. I want to run 17's and the wife wants Cragars. The 612 series can supposedly be had in "custom" backspacing.

17x7 up to 4" BS & 17x8's up to 5.75" BS. The car has a later rear, so the 8" 5.75 BS would be good on the back I think. I'm not sure about 4"BS on the front. Would it work or could I run 17x8 5.75 BS all the way around? I like the idea of all four wheels being the same but I don't know if it would fit. Any input from anyone would be great!

Are any of the site sponsors dealers for Cragar? I wouldn't mind supporting one with my business.

Thanks, Murf
