Does anyone have 17" wheels and wide low profile tires on a 69 Camaro, If you do please tell me what size works, what size offset wheel, what type of wheel, hopefully Tourk throust, and what size tire?
Thanks Jim

Here's mine. By the way, once I added the Baer disc brakes, the offset is perfect. For drum rears, I'd still go with 5.5" max.

Here's another link to someone who put Vette 17's on a 68. Did require the use of spacers to get the proper offset.

Hi Jim, There is an artical on that very subject in the summer addition of Camaro Performers magazine. Its on page 91. You can get a copy of the mag at Books a million or at a super Wal Mart. It has a green 70 1/2 with black stripes on the cover. Good luck!
