Biggest wheel/tire combo with DSE tubes and springs?
 
Hello!

I know this is an old subject but what is the really widest wheel wich can be used in 69 camaro with DSE tubes ,springs and offset kit ? I am intrested 18"-20" .

If you plan on running leaf springs, then the largest would be a 335 on a 12" wheel. I don't see how you could get a 345 in there and not rub on the leaf spring or fender lip - unless you had more offset than what the DSE offset shackles use and move the front perch inward.

Thank you Scott!

Actually 335 would be fine but i was thinking of 13" wheel. But i want to stick in easy DSE products.

Do you know has anyone 335/19s ?

Thanks!

345 / 20s are the same width as 335 / 18s

I didn't know that.

I do know that Jody tried putting a 345/30/18 in his 69 that had the same rear setup as mine and it wouldn't fit - just not enough room between the leaf spring and the fender lip.
