I run an 8" wheel. I know it's probably too narrow but it's what I can fit with the b body Dana and offset shackles. I'd like to go to a 10" wheel but I don't want to hack on my car.. What he said. I'm starting to wonder if I would be better w 275/60s (drop gear a tick) on 8s over 295/65s on 8s.
72 RR, Pump gas 440, 452s, 3800 lbs, Corked, ET Radials,. 11.33@117.72.
Same car, bone stock 346s, 9.5 comp, baby solid. 12.24@110.

I may look into a 10" wheel but I can't see it fitting in there.

I ran a 325-50 with rolled lips before I took the car apart.
