Thanks Sam, I was wondering about the backspacing on the 7-inch Cragars. I don't like it when they stick out too far in back. I have a pair of brand-new 15x6 S/S wheels that I bought from Summit a few years ago and they have a 3 3/8" backspace. The 7s come in a 4 1/8 or 2 1/4 backspace and I'd think the 4 1/8 would look better and not stick out but they'd probably rub the inner fender well, even with a G70. I've also thought about running 6-inch wheels all around (a-la Day 2 in 1967) with bigger tires in back--like G70s in back, E70s (or smaller) up front. I wish I had a buddy who owned a tire store so I could mix/match before spending any cash! (Don't we all?)
