Re: [Chevelle-List] tire and wheel sizing
Thanks guys for all the input. I seen an article in a super chevy mag. and this guy was running 20 inch rims with something like a 315 cross section and a 35 or 40 profile. Damn thats a lot of tire. Take it easy Dan McIntosh 65 Malibu

Larry, Do you happen to know what the backspacing of those wheels is. Also, did you need to raise the back end any? Much appreciated. Dan McIntosh

Right now it has 14 inch wheels with 195-70 tires. The car sits at stock height. I would love to run a wider tire, but I only have about 3/4 of an inch between the sidewall and the fender lip on the rear. Do any of you have any info on what combo will fit and look good? Thanks Dan McIntosh 65 Malibu
RE: [Chevelle-List] tire and wheel sizing
Title: Message Dan, On my ragtop I'm running 235-60 16s on 87 IROC Z wheels. I'm also running Hotchkis suspension which lowered the car about an inch". If I fill the car with people & turn all the way to right, the right front tire will rub the inner fender. Other than that, nothing has ever touched & the wheel wells are full.
