Anyone on here good at pohotoshop? Heres my cardomain site if anyone has the time/skill...

Im looking for 15x7 and 15x8. I have a nice set of tires already. 255/60R15 (27in) and 235/60R15 (26in?) What kind of backspacing and offset would I need to fit this on my stock 67 440???

Also, Im putting 73-76 front disc brakes on it. Is the bolt pattern on the 73-76 the same as my 67. I think it is 5x4.5, right?

Thanks!

Rear- 15x7 with 4.25-4.50 back space with a 275/60 is the biggest you can fit. Your new bolt pattern is the same, no problem.

ran 275/60/15's on 15x7 w/ 4.50 backspace. scraped a tade on big bumps. you should be fine. depending on your rim and tire combo you might be able to go w/ a 15x8 w/ 5" of back space.

Should the front have the same offset or no offset at all?
