69 valiant 275/60-15
Disclaimer: really large pics, don't know how to resize.
Hi there folks. I did a ton of searches on here trying to figure out if a 275/60 tire would fit in the stock wheel wells of the valiant. Eventually figured out they would fit but couldn't get a sure answer on what backspace would work, did some measuring and came up with 4.5 bs. So for you valiant guys, fattest tire in stock wheelwell with offset spring kit is: 15x8 wheel with 4.5 backspace wrapped in 275/60's!
They fit well, as soon as I relocate the springs with the 1/2 offset kit and roll the lips they will fit perfect!
Here are the pics. Do you guys think it looks better with the chrome dish on the fronts or without? I think im going to paint the front wheels flat black by the way, don't like the gloss. Comments or suggestions welcome guys/gals thanks!
