I just finished installing dse's on my 69 camro would liketo know what offset people are using with this set up. im thinking of going with 20" the widest I could go and is the 335 tire the standar for this set upor can I go wider. I would like to get info prior to installing quadra link onto the the car. car is sitting out side and dont want my new stuff expose to elements.

I'd probably do some measurements and see how centered your rear sub-frame and axle to your body are. On my car they were about 1/8" offset to the driver's side. From my understanding this is not uncommon and can affect the wheel sizes and offsets.

I got around my offset by rolling the rear fender lips especially on the driver's side.

I used a 17x12 with 8.25 BS on a 335/35/17 Michelin PS/2 Tire. But I didn't narrow my rear end at all kept it the standard width for a 69 Camaro (didn't want the deep dish went for more of a sleeper look )

You can adjust for 1/8" with you panhard bar. Nail the backspacing with the rear end centered to the body.
