Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

I've got a line on 4 Cragar S/S rims - 2 rear are 15x8 with 4&quot; backspacing and 2 fronts are 15x7 with 4&quot; backspace. They were originally put on a new 1965 chevelle when originally purchased.

Can anyone confirm how that size wheel would fit the rear quarters of my 1969 Chevelle? I don't want to have to do any trimming of the wheel lips, etc.

Also, any suggestions on tire size?

Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

I think those wheels work on a 69 Chevelle.

I don't buy the story of those wheels being on a 65 as that is an extremly tight fit. Clearly the wheels are at least 20 years newer than a 65 too.

What kind of tires do you like?

Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

They look more like the flat style spokes to me. Maybe put on the 65 chevelle when it got restored? But from birth.....Maybe not.

Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

They might work but will be sticking out a little too far.

I have Corvette rally wheels on the back of my Chevelle and they are 4.25&quot; b/s.

The best b/s for a Chevelle with a 8&quot; wheel is 4.5&quot;.

Those are 'new' Cragars. Uni-lug, chrome in recessed area way nice than gennies, center cap is different [as well as spokes flatter] Purists care, others don't. Since they are new, why not just buy new ones with a better backspage from Jegs?

Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

I put the Cragars on the TA Challenger. 15x7 all around with 235/60/15 front and 255/60/15 rear.

Re: Day 2 wheel suggestions?
 

Thanks for the advice guys. If they are not the original vintage cragar, I'm going to pass on them and keep looking... For a vintage 15x8 mag with 4.5&quot; b/s.
Thanks!
