The tires are 315-35-17 BFGs. I had tons of room inboard as I relocated the leaf springs 6 inches inboard, but I went with the standard 5.75 offset. I could have come out ok running a 67-69 rear as they are 1 inch narrower than the stock 72 10-bolt. I wasnt aware of this fact at the time I was building the car though. So I had the wheel centers cut and moved inboard 1 inch on both sides. Works fine now and looks better on track too!
thanks- I ended up taking 5/8 out of each side- no pics yet weather has been crappy- see above-
