Something's not right. Either your wheel is wider than 9.5", they shipped you the incorrect backspacing, or your rear end is not the original and is too wide for your car. I am running 18" wheels on my 69 and they tuck way more than the one pictured. My wheels are 18" x 9.5" with 5.5" backspacing. I am running Nitto NT555's in a 275/40 size. I did roll my fender lips, but really don't think I had to. I also have Hotchkis 1-1/2" drop leaf springs. Have you verified the backspacing yet ?
