When I did my '69 Camaro, there was gobs and gobs of info about what backspacing and rim/tire size would fit a 1st gen. It was easy to find out. This car is going to be a bit trickier to make sure I get stuff that will work.

the wheel deal is quiet simple
You can do all the measurements on the car to get the exact offset and backspacing you can do
Most upper scale wheel manufacturers offer detailed instructions on how to do so and get the exact wheel to look just like you want
I pretty much want to maximize all the space in the fender, from the outside to the inside fender, as much as i can and as wide as i can, because its a huge car and it needs wide tires to even it all out
