Hey guys, just trying to figure out if a set of 15x8 wheels with 5.50 in backspacing will fit on a 89 camaro. It has a stock 10 bolt with drum brakes. I am also planing on putting 275 60 15 tires on these wheels. The car will be lowered 2 inches in the rear also.. Will this combination fit.
Not on the front it wont. On the rear, they'd be awfully far under. Look for a 4.5" backspace, aka a zero offset. That's excellent for all 4 corners. Then think more like a set of 245/60R15s.
well, like i said, I want these just for the rear. Im using 15x4's up front. Anyway, I want to use a wheel that will go far into the wheel well. I dont want them to stick out at all. I figured a 5.5 in offset would be best for that. I also heard that 275 tires will fit on an 8 inch wheel.
would 15x7's i the front look good with 15x8's in the back, and is it possible i go with a 0 offset? and what kind of tire size should i be using for both wheels??
