13 inch wheel on rear 69 Camaro
 
I've done a few searches and could find anything for certain. Here's what I have 69 Camaro mini tubed, can I fit a 13 inch wheel in the back of DSE mini tub?? I know some are running 12.5 wheel, but I found a deal on a pair of Fikse but the are 13" wide and I don't have to see if I can get them in there. Also I have not put in the tubs yet just finishing up triming and stuff so i can get a good measurement to see if I wide the tubs will they fit. And I won't have the tubs done before I may miss the deal on the wheel. Thanks guys for the help.

Hey Rick! I've not tried it, but here's my guess...a qualified 'yes'. You'll probably need 15" of clearance @ 10:00 and 2:00 and do something major to your frame rails. Choices there would be relocating or putting new (i.e. AME or other) frame rails, or hacking the crap out of them. I got at least 14.5" cutting my frame rails down and putting 1/4" steel into the thin area:

As you well know, other things to think about are BS and rear end width. Good luck w that!
