WAY FALSE.
All data needed is diameter, offset, and fender clearence (turn radius).
what sized rims and or tires are you after?
On my 53 1/2 ton with a 67' firebird rear on stock truck springs I fit stock
corvette 15x8 ralley rims with 275/60r15 dunlop gt qualifiers. i can send a
pick along to prove it.
The front is the stock i-beam with lug converters (6 to 5) and i ran the
stock corvette 15x7 ralley rims with 225/60r15 dunlop gt qualifiers. No
rubbing for either.
for the full custom 51 gmc I am running a Jag front and rear suspension and
i fit Boyd's 16 inch 5 stars with (currently) 205's on the front and 235's
on the back.
