Hey Clint, have you seen examples of that wheel/tire combo?  I'd love to see a picture if you know where to find one.

I've been thinking about running 18X9.5, 275/35/18 up front and 18X10, 295/35/18 in the rear.  I still need to measure for backspacing.  I have the GW front arms and went for about 3" lower on all corners.

With proper backspacing,an 18x11 rear wheel and 315/30/18 tire would fit,too.

I put a set of 18x9’s on the rear of my 69 with 285/50R18’s and they don’t rub.  They are very close though.  They are about 29” tall which is a very tall tire, but they get plenty of complements on how they look.  The car is lowered 1” and I could probably go even lower.

Hey guys,
   I have a 70 SS I am putting together. I want to run the widest tires on the back I possibley can without making the car look silly. I am curious as to what size tires, wheels and backspacing everyone is running.
 
                                                 Thanks Matt
