No problem Kell..I should also mention that I have enough clearance on the inside of the rear tires to fit a 10" wheel with 6" backspace.

Default T70R's

Here is my '65 Tempest project, with the ultimate set of wheels and tires.











The wheels are American Racing T70R's with billet 200S caps. They are 15x7 with a 4 inch backspace in the front, the rear wheels were 15x8, they have been widened in the backsides by Weldcraft Wheels to 15x9 and now have a 5 inch backspacing and zero offset.

The tires are BFG T/A Radials, 215-65-15 in the front, and 275-60-15 in the rear.

The car sits a couple of inches above stock, I used '66 GTO springs CS5244 front and CS5235 rear.
The original rear end is in the car. There are no clearance problems.
