I just bought 5-15 X 7's from a fellow PYer as I am doing a disc brake swap on one of the 68 verts. we have and I do not think the JC wheels will fit. Anyway the plan is running 245-60/15's in the rear (26.6" tall vs. 25.1" tall for the current 235-60/14) and do not see a problem with the 7 inch rim for that size. I wanted all the wheels the same size so the trim ring depth would be the same all around like the 14 x 6's I currently have. I know a friend had trouble finding trim rings to fit the 8" rims (they left a 1/2" gap but they where repro Rally I's) but you should be able to find them.
Originally we had contemplated using those 17" wheels too but were thinking 9" rear and 8" front (assuming they make those). I keep flip flopping on whether I like those on an A Body or not and guess we are just playing it safe with the 15's.
