Static Dropped?

^^^^^ Yep, those are the things we need to know. If it's static dropped, how much?

Re: what size rims for 67

Maybe this'll help: My '69 is static-dropped 2.5/4.0. The rearend width is the same from '60 thru '69. I run 15x10's on the rear, with a 5-inch backspace. The tires are 275-60x15's. You can find the diameter of this tire on various websites and compare that diameter to the diameter of the tires you intend to run on those wheels you like. I have a fleetside and have never had any issues with the tire contacting the inside of the wheel opening.....

Re: what size rims for 67

If you are looking for 20's, then a 20x8.5 will be good with a backspace of 5.25" - 5.5". Out back a 20x10 with 4.75" backspacing.

What diameter are you wanting? Were you in search for a custom built wheel or ????
