'69 Chevelle 17" wheel correct backspace.

[joerob727]

Hey Guys,

Need to put in an order for wheels for my '69 Chevelle. Current plan calls for 17x8 and 17x9.5 (11s if they'll fit).

I've read on this and other forums varying opinions on backspacing and max rear width. Car is fresh out of paint and am in the process of reconstruction, waiting on the diff so I can't take measurements.

Does anyone have any experience with respect to backspace and max width on an otherwise stock '69?

I would really appreciate any and all advice.

Thanks in advance for your time
Joe
