This has been asked a few times. The key is the rear wheel offset. I have Weld Pro Star 15x8, with a 275/60R/15 tucked up under the rear quarter panel. My car is lowered with a drag suspension set up. (1977 Z/28). It fits fine, and looks badass. A 295/50 would be cooler still, but thats a really tough tire to make fit properly with stock suspension.
