The chrome on my original wheels is pretty faded and I have tried the normal remedies.... What I plan to do is send them to somewhere like Stockton Wheel and have them re-chromed, but I also want to widen the rear. What size, what backspacing and what size tire should I run on the rear (it will be a DR on the rear) I was thinking 15x10....o No: I just dont want ot to rub, that's whay I ask about any special backspacing needed the good thing for me, I have another set of wheels that have Polyglas GT tires on them for when I go to car shows, those only go on once or twice a year, but at least I'll be able to drive it as I'm sure it will take a couple weeks.

Vin, This has been discussed so many times. Phil Sedlon did the 15 X 10 wheel years ago. This is the original thread: http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=15046&highlight=backspacing
