SCOTI's right, I wouldn't run anything wider than a 10" wheel in the rear.
that what I was after, a nice wide lip, I didnt even think that my 68 burb is a 6-lug, just slipped my mind I guess. 10" is what I was after, so thats good news. I'm converting the front to disk and might do the rear as well. To switch the rear to 5-lug, would I just need new axles?
