On a 67 cuda, what would be the best bs and width on a stock width 8 3/4 rear, springs on stock position. Running a +1 caltrac spring and their traction system. This is a track only car
15" wheels and 28x9 bias slicks

This car had 15 x 7 Auto Drags with the 3 5/16 backspace and 28 x 9 MT slicks. They hugged the lip of the quarter a little too close and didn't let me drop it down much. I had a choice of the 3 5/16 bs and 4 7/8...in hindsight I should have done the 4 7/8 and clearanced the inner wheel tub or even run a small spacer.
So I would say ideally you want a 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 backspace and a 15 x 7 or 15 x 8 wheel. 15 x 8 with 4 1/2 bs would probably be perfect.

It's dead unfortunately. Sold it in '95 to a guy who put the engine in his Challenger, and the rest got parted out. Last I heard the empty shell is somewhere in the sandhills of NE.

No it was typical rust, very repairable. The guy that bought it was notorious for destroying cars...I really shouldn't have sold it to him. But hindsight is 20/20 and all that.
