rear wheel size and backspace requested
hi, i have a 1972 chevy half ton 2 wheel drive fleetside (coil springs) that is lowered 3.5 in front and 5" in the rear.
(i say 1972 b/c i belive this rear end is wider?? then the earlier 1967-1969 ones) I am struggling with the rear wheel size. (up front i am am happy with my 18x8 wheels and 255/45/18 tires. In the rear i would like to run a 275 or 285 tire on an 18 inch wheel. a) what width rear wheel can i run with this 5" drop on a fleetside (9" or 10") b) what backspace do i want with 1) a 9" wheel 2) a 10" wheel i want the rear wheel to not rub outside or inside and i want it out as far as possible (don't like the tucked in look thanks so much for the advice Last edited by 1971short4X4; 06-30-2009 at 12:33 AM. |
