Wheel math (backspacing and width) - 10/13/10 01:27 AM
At the moment I'm running a 255/60/15 tire with 15x8" wheels with 5.5 backspacing in my 72 demon which has a 68 coronet bbody 8 3/4 rear installed and I'm thinking of switching wheels. I already know (found out the hard way) that 15x8 w/4.5 bs and same size tire sticks out too far.
I found some wheels that I like locally but the rears are 15x7 with 4.5 backspacing. I'm trying to picture in my head if these wheels will put the tire/wheel in the same location as the current wheel/tire setup I have, or if they will stick out too far like the original wheels I used.
Any ideas?
