Rear wheel fitment

Post by 70chevy »

Im looking to put 15x10 draglites on the back of my 70 chevelle with the 315 wide drag radials.I need to know what backspace the wheels should be so they dont rub the inner lip on the 1/4 panel.Somebody told me before that it was either 5" or 5.5"

Probably going to need to roll the lip on the 1/4, and hammer a few spots on the inner wheel wells to fit the 315's. google "team chevelle" and try the forums, you can probably just use the search function over there and get your answer in a few minutes, if there has ever been a question about a chevelle it's been asked and answered there.

15x10 with 5.5bs is what you should use. That is the same combination I run
