can 15 x 10 rims fit rear of 66?
« on: March 11, 2007, 09:38:24 pm »
Has anyone put 15 x 10's on the rear of a 65-66?

I was running 295/50-15's on the rear, on 15 x 8 rims, and the tread was flush with the wheelarch, with the sidewall just slightly bulging out.
There is a little bit of room in the tubs still, as the car isn't lowered, and I am hoping to narrow the new diff by about 1/2" each side, just to gain a little more clearance. I am thinking that the 295's may fit, maybe a touch wider than before, but that is OK with me, or if not it would be nice to put my 275/50-15 Mickey Thompson Drag Radials on 10" rims, rather than the 8's.
Has anyone done it? What offsets did you run?
