I think the widest tire with that rim is a 255 60 without any modifications. Does anyone else know for sure? ------------------ 69 Camaro 327/TH350/12-Bolt Mr. C Feb 18th, 02, 09:22 AM Anyone else with this set up? MarkM Feb 19th, 02, 11:43 AM I'm not 100% sure on the smaller wheels, but I think it will work with only a 245 tire. I've seen people put 275/60 15 before, but they had more bs. And you'll have to rull the fender lip. matgo6 Feb 19th, 02, 01:56 PM I am running that same wheel size with 275/60's but I had to put a 1/4" backspacer in to keep them from rubbing inside. You should be alright with 245's but it will be close. mr69 Feb 20th, 02, 03:11 PM Mr. C: i am running that exact setup, see my previous post about half way down..... http://www.camaros.net/forum/Forum8/HTML/000714.html ------------------ My '69 Camaro Convertible (http://www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/Screen/1243/Camaro3-1.html) Mr. C Feb 20th, 02, 04:55 PM I got my hands on 2 15x8 Crager SS/T that a buddy had (brand new)on the backside where wheel meets the drum measuring toward the inside using a straight edge on the edge of the rim I've got 4.25 I'm hoping these will work with 245 60s |
