I have a 1967 Camaro Stock rear end.
What is the largest tire & rim size (I want a 15") to put on the rear and front? Also what offsets or backspace? I am hoping a 15x7 or
15x8 would work? Many thanks!

I have a '68 with 15X8's all around - backspace was 4 or 4.5.

One word. Sweet!
Thanks for the help!
With drums up front you have to use 15 x 8 w/ 3 - 7/16" BS. The wheels inner rim will strike the outer tie rod end. For the rear, the 4.5" BS will work fine. Before you order your wheels measure everything 3 times to make sure you don't end up with a set of wheels that you can't use.

Hi Ron,
I have disc up fr>>
You'll have to pull the wheels off and measure the distance from the rotor where the wheel bolts on out from center in a 14" to 16" circle and measure the distances that a wire, tape measure, etc. hits any components. Make sure that you allow for suspension compression and the wheel wells.
