Hello everyone,

I am considering putting new wheels/tires on my '69 SS. Does anyone know if the following will work? I've seen a few posts on the net about others using this kind of setup ... but want to be sure I don't need to make any modifications before I make the purchases.

275/50/15's on 15x8.5 Torq Thrust D's in rear
225/60/15's on 15x7 Torq Thrust D's in front

Anyone running a similar setup? Also, can anyone recommend the best source for Torq Thrust D's. Many Thanks for any info.

Check the sizes I posted in this post. These were what Chevy High Performance found to be the biggest that you could go without fender mods. Is this the info you needed??

 

Judging by the diameter and tread width of the 16's in that article my 15's should be fine. Thanks very much for the info.

No problem buddy

 

That should fit but you need to fit out the back space........ with a 7 " in the front you'll need at least 3.75" and with a 8.5" rear you'll 4.50-5" of BS to keep from rubbing either on turns or bumps.
