I'm interested in seeing how much they are bulging from the narrow rim. I'd also like to see picture of the front too. Thanks

I'm running 295/50R-15 on 15 x 8 Weld Prostars out back 235/60R-15 on 15 x 7 up front 4-1/2 backspace all around. I figure that I could go to a 15 x 10 with a 5-1/2 backspace as this would move the rim equally inside and outside. On the other hand I've started to like the "Big Bologna" look on the 8" wheels.
This is a '68 convertible.

found out the hard way on my 68. Thought i might mention that if you have 4 piston disk brakes on the front that it is hard to find a wheel that will fit without banging the caliper. I have torque thrust d's on mine now and they hit untill I ground off a little of the caliper and put a 1/8 inch spacer in between the rim and rotor.

I managed to fit 325-50-15 on 15x10 Weld Wheels. Not without hammering the inner wheelwell real bad. I had to use wheelspacers also. It has 5,5" backspacing which is a half inch too much. They do fit in the wheelhousing very nicely now.
