new owner with a wheel/tire question
first off, i have used the search button to no avail. haha.
i am picking up a 67 swb chevy tomorrow. it is lowered already. not sure how far. my question is, what is the widest rear tire that can go on the back? i know the bed floor can be built around it, just not sure before it hits the frame. i was thinking 20's on the front and 22's on the back. or 20's or 22's all the way around to match. thanks for the help with my first of a thousand questions. haha. i am really excited to get my truck. been wanting one for 20yrs almost. |

Re: new owner with a wheel/tire question
Welcome to the board.
With the correct backspacing,... you can stuff a 10" rim under the rear fenders easily. If you mini-tub the wheelwells, you can put a 12" wide rim under there,... again, with the correct backspacing. Some people are even using the new 405/25-24 Pirelli tires on a 24x15 rim. (Im sure you will need to make a few mods to the rear suspension) Real world,... I would go with a 20x10 or 22x10 on the back.
