Hey everyone, whatup? I know this subject seems to be a constant, however, I did a search and found nothing on this particular size wheel! I have a 69Z with the Hotchkiss lowered springs front and rear. I want the pro street look,,, skinnies up front, 15x3.5 and as wide as possible in the rear! Question, will the Centerline Auto Drags size 15x8.5 with the 4.78 back spacing work without hitting the shock mounts and will a 275/50 tuck in there as well? If I have to settle for the 15x8,, what would be the best choice of tire and size to give it that meat look in the rear? Also, what size up front in the Mickey Thompson line up most resembles a size of 165/15? Thanks! Randy

I trial fitted a friend's Cragar S/S mags (15x8, not sure of backspacing, but think it was 4.5) with 275/60/15 tires on my '69 and the fit looked fine.

I think the Auto Drag is a great wheel. I'm putting Centerline Telestars on my car. VERY light compared to the 17 and 18-inchers most people are putting on their cars.
