here is a pic of my old 65 Plymouth. with the springs moved in 3 inches per side and the wheel wells Minni tubed. The wheels wear weld pro stars 15x10 with 6.5 inches of BS and M/T 31x10.5X15W slicks. I did have to trim the front of the lower wheel well so the slicks would not rub and it only took a little bit to get them to clear. here are some pics of it. Mopar65

The pic of my 65 had 275/60-15s on a 10" rim. It was tight! I went to a Hoosier QTP 29x10.5-15 and had to mount on a 8" rim (which was the minimum recommended in their catalog) and it fit great with room to stick your hand in between tire and qtr. I think it was 4.5 backspace. It looks great now, really fills the well. Sorry no pics yet of new set up. Springs in stock location and only the lip of quarter had been rolled a lil.
