    The rim is a 15x10 with a 5.5 BS. The frame is in the process of being notched....

    I thought you could Run a 15X10 wheel on these Cars with out Notching the Frame But i see you have a 325/50/15 witch is 13 Sec 11 Tread Very Big.
    I like those Billet Specialties Street Lites alot. Not trying to Rob your Post.
    Witch size wheel and Backspacing are you running with the M/T Radials
    the 275/60/15 and the 295/65/15 with out any wheel well or Frame Mods?

    There a lot of prior posts on wheel sizes and options with pictures. The 275/60 in the pic is on a stock T-Type 7" rim. Only rubbed the frame a little if you took hard cornering.

    I ran 325s last year, just sold the wheels and tires. They are indeed massive.

    I'm in the process of selecting some new shoes, and rims if need be, I'm pretty much settled on the MT ET Street Radials 275/60/15 on 15x8 4" BS (will be ordering the wider GN rims from gbodyparts, yes I know they're heavy but I like the stock rims) in the rear. Will these rub on an 8" rims as they do on the stock 7"?

    As for the fronts, I'm thinking 225/60/15's on the stock 15x7 3.5" BS rims, are the MT ET Street radials used in the front as well or just the back? If they're no good in the front what would be a good option up front?

    Thanks in advance.

    how extreme is the frame notch to fit those tires? I was thinking a mini-tub would be needed.

    I am attempting "operation skinny frame" as we speak. We will see, should work without the spacer hopefully.
