The 73 is all stock, Stock springs,etc, What tires and rim width are you guys stuffing under your Cudas?

What offset?

Thanks in advance,

Max fitment will be 275 on an 8" wheel with 4-1/2" back spacing...
from what I've been told. I will be upgrading to this combo myself in the next few weeks.

Right now on my E-body I have a 255 on an 8" wheel with 3-3/4" backspacing and is too close to fender.

I have a new pair of wheel vintiques rallye wheels 15 x 8 4.5 backspace that I tried on the rear of my 70 cuda with 275/60/15 nittos. They rubbed on fender lip and I had to change to different rims. Stock dana stock spring location. Rubbed on both sides. I'll make you a deal on the rims if you want them. They were only mounted and dismounted. Thanks, Mike 217-546-2300 no text.

In the case of my wife's Barracuda, it has 295/65/15's on an 8" wheel with 4.5" backspace using a B-body Dana. It also has Dr. Diff offset hangars and shackles.

bite the bullet & go the offset springhangers & fit some 325x50 on 10" rims. thats the biggest you can fit with stock wheelwells & in my opinion they look great. but i'm bias.

I am biased like you! Good looking car you got there! Paint it white and we have near twins!
