I have 15 x 8 in the rear, and 4 1/2" backspacing, and I have A LOT of rub
on the lip after beating, and bending (going to replace the lower wheel
wells anyway). You really need a 5" backspacing. I am also running a
275-60r15 in the rear, it's the biggest that I could fit.
Here's what is ideal f

t. I'm not even sure the tires were true 4-ply
back then...seems most were 2-ply with 4-ply ratings :*)

Running radial
Running radial tires affects the specs to some degree. You should keep the camber specs closer to 0 and should never be as high as the 3/4 pos listed below. The toe in should probably be 1/16 not as high as 3/16 listed. 1965 was 4-ply tires era.

Thanks.
I think SAI is steering axle inclination.

Here's what my Chilton's says:
Caster ~ Range 1 1/2 neg to 1/2 neg, preferred is 1.0 neg
Camber ~ Range 1/4 neg to 3/4 pos, preferred is 1/4 pos
Toe In ~ 1/16 to 3/16
King Pin inclination ~ 8 deg.
Wheel Pivot Ratio ~ Inner wheel 20, outer wheel 18 3/4
Unless these last two are now called SAI...?
