    I am looking at a set of used but relatively new wheels and tires on craigslist.

    The fronts are 255\50\17 on 17x8 and the rears are 275\50\17 on 17x8.

    Before I buy them, will they work on a 1967 sklyark?

    We need to know the bolt pattern spacing and the backspacing to have a clue if they'll work.

    275's will fit on the rear if the wheel back spacing is PERFECT. If you lower the car, they may not fit.
    But you might need to trim or roll up the wheel well lip a little.
    255's are on the big side on the front of my '66, they will rub at times.
