Got the Hoosiers on. They are 1" wider than my ET Streets. The Hoosiers are Quick time Pros 28x11.5/15 ET Streets were the same but 1" less tread. Check em out. Later.

Mark,
Looks Good.Same set up I had on my 71.10 inch Tread width,mine were on 8 inch Drag lites.Snug but no rubbing.
Joe

There's no way these would fit with an 8" rim on my car. Did you run a Hoosier Quick time pro?

Mark,
I had those once and I had McCreary DOT's.
What Backspace is on your 7's?This is Joe,I bought the Coverter and Headers from you.I have ran 10 inch tires on 8 inch wheels on Many 68-72 Nova's.They are Tight.
Joe

Looking at the Front of that Wheel I am thinking 4.5 Backspace.
Joe

Yo what's up dude. Yes they are 4.5 and you see how tight they are. An 8" will never fit. Even with a 5.5" bs. All I have inside is about a 1/2". Well I'm happy with thw way they look anyhow. I always wondered why the Mickey's are only a 9" tread. Later.

Mark,
That is what I use 5.5 Back Space.I dont move the Shocks in unless I am going Wider.What are your Tires close to on the Inside?I had to do some Minor work.Biggest Problem was the 3" Tail Pipes.

Tehe inner wheel well at the frame.

Mark,
Not to change the Subject but,does your Car have A/M 1/4 Panels or Patches?
Joe

Joe,
Any problem with the draglites and 5-1/2 spacing. Just ordered Hoosiers new DOT drag radial in a 275/60-15 and they are in. I am running 15 x 8 x 5-1/2 BS on my '72. Also have 4-1/2 BS if needed, but I think I would rub the outside.
Tom

So you guys have fit a 15x8 with a 275/60/15 with 5.5 back spacing with no rubbing??? I want to run the widest tire I can, but I dont want to buy somthing that doesn't fit. I've heard 275/60/15 on 15x7 with 4.5 b/s fits.
