Does anyone have the original sizes for a 69 camaro? What was the widest rim GM used on the front? The reason I am asking is because I still have tie rod clearance issues. The company who manufactured the 2" lowering spindles said that they were designed to assure adequate clearance when used with stock sized rims. They say I must not have stock rims. I'm trying to fit 15X7 with 4 1/4" of backspacing, and that won't work. Thanks.

15 x 7's had 4" bs. Maybe you could get a spacer to clear the 1/4"? Make sure you get longer studs though.
