    Would like to know if the 15x8 from Wheel Vintiques will fit the rear of my 67, With or without triming the wheelhouse lip. Or are they to big period. Anyone seen them on a 67GS or Special. Thanks Clint

    Will know soon

    I ran into a friend that will loan me a 15x8 with 275-60 to see if it will fit. I let you know as soon as I find out. Clint

    14x7 with 245-60's

    hi clint i have a 67 buick GS 340 i have a set of vintage E-t's they look like torq-thrusts any ways i know that a 14x7 with 4.75 back spacing will fit a 245-60r14 which looks good with th 215-60-14 fronts. One thing that i did was i put air bags in the rear springs and this seemed to keep the rear up. I would like to go wider if i could so let me know how it works. I am going to by a new set of american racing 200s wheels and i want to put the widest wheels possible on the back

    :beer A 15 by 8 with 5" back space will carry a 270-60 tire in my 65 GS 'Lark. An 11:50 ET Street will also fit with this wheel. You can also use a 15 by 7 with 4 1/2 inch back space with these tires. Not much clearance, but enough on my car. Hope this helps. :Do No:
