Default Re: Rims / Tires for my 1969 Corvette

[ QUOTE ]
make sure with the offset on the rims the front tires don't rub. 27" on the front of a 69 camaro with a rim less than 4" of backspacing seem to rub/hit the wheel well. A vette may have more room.

I think I should be okay; the '68 Corvettes came from the factory with 7" rims and I think they used an F70-15. I am hoping that using the 15 x7 with a 4" BS should maintain that stock fitment.
I want to be really careful with my selections since it's not a cheap investment and I doubt that these tings are returnable.

Thanks for the heads up.
