boss 338 wheels and tires on 68 camaro
 
I wanted to see if the the back spacing and tires would work? I'm running air ride front and back. 18x8's with 4.5 backspacing and 245/40/18 tires. For the rear 20x8.5's with 5.25 backspacing and 255/35/20 tires. I just wanted to make sure when I lower it to park they will tuck. Thanks. Any advise would be great.

Back space is not ideal for the 1st gen. We like to see 4.75-5.0 on a 8" front and less backspace than the 5.25 on the 20x8.5 rear. Have you looked at the Foose Legends? They are available in chrome and painted gray centers in backspacing that will work great for you car. Feel free to pm, email, or call if you need any help or a quote.

"Tuck"... no way. Listen to what Justin said if you want wheels and tires to tuck. :thumbsup:
