They are 4.5" backspace. 15x8 rear 15x5 front. Front tires are 215x65/15 and the rear was 275x60x15 but just put on Hoosier street slicks 28x11.5. No rub or rolled edges. I bought the car from a guy in Jan. 1998. It was a Best of Show car that had been sitting for 9 years since the owner got sick. The body was beautiful but needed a lot of mechanical work. Got it back on the road by June of 1998. Won Best of Show in first show. have won about 25 Best in 3 yrs. It was a 351C 2v automatic. Installed 4v heads a cam and holley. Converted to 4spd 2.78 first gear. Rear was redone with a 31 spline Strange Traction Lock and 31 spline Mosers axles and 4.40 gears. All new brakes system including drums, control arms,upper and lower, u-joints, heater core, Mallory Unilite Dist with MSD 6al. New seat covers, rugs, and NOS door panels. this July a devopled a tapping noise, turned out to be a cracked piston. Had the engine stroked to 408 with a Torker and 800 dp holley. Made 537hp @6300 rpm. Now I am having a cowl hood installed because the intake is too high. So it's in the body shop right now. Can't wait to get it back and drive it. Also installed line lock, frame connectors, scatter shield and loop. Car should run about 11.30. The car was originally orange and since the PO was a painter and owned a body shop he repainted it in 1988. Completly stripped the car so there is no original paint any where. You can take off the fenders and it's all repainted. The hood has ghost flames and the sides have ghost pin stipes. RAY
