I just agreed to buying a '69Camaro. I want to put rally wheels on it. My question is can I get a 255/60r15 T/A Radial inside the rear fender when it's on a 15x8 with 4.5 bs? Would I need more back space? or is there not enough room for this size tire on a '69?

I think I have the front figured out.
215/70r15 on a 15x7 with 4.25 bs.

both will fit. you could go 225 in front if you want. your bs is right

With the 4.5 bs will the 15x8 trim ring fit? I'm wondering if I will have to go to the 15x7 because of the non std offset.

Same question about the fronts. 4" seems to be std offset. If I go 4.125 will 15x7 rings fit or do I have to use 15x6 rings?

I'm trying to get this all figured out before spending the $$$ on mistakes.

Fred

I have 215/65R15 all around. 235/60R15 will rub on the front. When I got my car i had 235/60R14 on the front with no issues. Std Camaro BS.

the trim rings will work fine. I have 15x7 rings all around, even on my 15x8's on back.

Wow.
What springs are you running ?
"Cause you could fit a beagle between the tires and the fenderwells

My mechanic had them re-arched, they are 5 leaf. I have been having problems with it but I almost have it figured out thanks to team camaro. Here is the thread.
